Speed Racer #5 has some great action capturing the beats and tone of the classic anime

Over the Edge! The brakes are gone…and the finish line is dead ahead! With the C.A.T. Team gunning for his destruction, Speed faces his most dangerous race yet, until an unlikely lifeline appears: Racer X. But alliances on the track are as fragile as they are fast, and even with Spritle, Trixie, and Sparky in his corner, it may take everything Speed has to survive Kim Jugger’s wrath, Dante Ferno’s sabotage, and the ghosts of Rex Racer’s crash. A showdown years in the making rockets toward its shocking finish line–one that will change Speed’s life forever.

A New Spin for a New Generation, All with the Same Need for Speed! Speed Racer Adventures Vol. 1 from Franco and Derek Charm starts the race April 2026

Against all odds, Speed Racer is ready to floor it and prove he belongs in the driver’s seat! Papercutz in partnership with Tatsunoko Production, is thrilled to hit the greenlight with Speed Racer Adventures Vol. 1, an all-new original graphic novel from New York Times bestseller, multi-Eisner Award, and Harvey Award-winning creators Franco and Derek Charm. This all-new spin on the classic anime icon revs up the humor, the heart, and the horsepower for a new generation.

The best race car driver in the world has been invited to drive the most advanced artificial intelligence car in the world.

When the world’s richest man uses unlimited funds to build the most technologically advanced car ever and hires Racer X to run a race he created, the deck is stacked against Speed Racer! It’s not going to be an easy race, but with his secret weapons, his friends and family, Speed has a pretty good chance of getting in the race and winning — and he’s going to hedge his bet with a whole lot of candy! Come for the laughs, the hijinks, and the amazing speeds the cars reach. Go Speed Racer, GO!

Aimed at middle-grade readers (ages 7-12), Speed Racer Adventures is perfect for fans of the classic cartoon and beyond, blending humor, heart, and high-speed action in a way that parents and kids can enjoy together!

Speed Racer Adventures Vol. 1 will be available April 28, 2026, in hardcover ($17.99, ISBN 978-1-5458-2378-1) and paperback ($12.99, ISBN 978-1-5458-2379-8), available wherever books and comics are sold, as well as through Papercutz and Simon & Schuster.
