Speed Racer lives for the thrill of the race, but on the underground circuit, the rules are anything goes. Dodging bullets, explosions, and dirty tricks, he’s got one goal: to prove he’s the best. But when a dangerous syndicate targets his family, Speed’s greatest challenge won’t be on the track—it’ll be on the streets. With the police closing in and a masked racer lurking in the shadows, Speed is about to learn that some races can’t be won with horsepower alone.

A collectible edition for longtime fans and readers discovering the franchise for the first time, Speed Racer Vol. 1 Deluxe Edition channels the spirit of the original while shifting into something grittier, faster, and wholly built for today’s comics audience. This expanded edition also includes a full cover gallery and behind-the-scenes material.

Built for maximum velocity, the Speed Racer Vol. 1 Deluxe Edition hardcover goes on sale August 11, 2026 (ISBN: 9781545830703 | $29.99). Available wherever books and comics are sold, as well as from the Mad Cave website.
