ACT 4 PUBLISHING & SKYBOUND ANNOUNCE GEORGE PÉREZ’S THE NEW TEEN TITANS ARTIST’S EDITION

The Groundbreaking Comic Book Series Comes to A New Format in 2026

LOS ANGELES 09/22/2025 —Skybound, in partnership with Scott Dunbier’s Act 4 Publishing, announced today that one of the most important DC comics series of all time will release in the award-winning Artist’s Edition format as George Pérez’s The New Teen Titans Artist’s Edition arrives in stores June 2026.

Continuing a multi-book deal with DC, George Pérez’s The New Teen Titans Artist’s Edition gives a unique view into how the Teen Titans came to be, featuring a large selection of the artist’s original art, including beautiful covers and a curated selection of pages from issues #1-40 of The New Teen Titans. A heartfelt introduction by Pérez’s longtime collaborator and New Teen Titans co-creator, Marv Wolfman, headlines this stunning 12” x 17” hardcover edition.

“George Pérez’s work struck a chord with fans. His craftsmanship and beautiful imagery showed, to me, his true love of drawing–you could feel the care he put into his art,” said Scott Dunbier. “George’s work is long overdue for an Artist’s Edition and I’m happy it is finally happening.”

A true turning point in comic book history, Marv Wolfman and George Pérez created a massive hit for DC when The New Teen Titans arrived on comic shop shelves in 1980. The team of Robin, Starfire, Wonder Girl, Raven, Kid Flash, Cyborg, and Beast Boy stole readers’ hearts, rivaling even the X-Men for preeminence in the comic market.

"George Pérez is one of the greatest storytellers of my lifetime,” said Sean Mackiewicz, SVP, Publisher, Skybound. “This volume captures his masterful linework like never before, with all the dazzling detail, heartwarming (and heartbreaking) emotion, and awe-inspiring action he rendered on the board.”

An Artist’s Edition is an art book disguised as a comic collection. Although appearing to be in black and white, all the art is scanned in color, enabling the reader to see the work as close to the original as possible – ink gradients, blue pencil, and all the unique nuances that make original art so special – are all clearly visible and printed at the same size as drawn. The only better way to experience these pages is by looking at the artist’s drawing board, as they’re drawing.

George Pérez’s The New Teen Titans Artist’s Edition is the next chapter of the groundbreaking releases from the Act 4 Publishing and Skybound partnership. The previously announced releases include titles releasing in late 2025 (Jim Aparo’s DC Classics Artist’s Edition) and throughout 2026 (The Amazing Spider-Man by Steve Ditko Artist’s Edition, Darwyn Cooke’s The Complete Spirit Connoisseur Edition, Wally Wood's EC Stories Artist’s Edition- EXPANDED and Mike Mignola's Hellboy in Hell Book 2 Artist’s Edition).

Future releases within the publishing partnership include J. Scott Campbell’s Danger Girl Artist Edition, Dave Stevens’ Covers and Stories’ Connoisseur Edition, Jason Pearson’s Body Bags Artist’s Edition, Paul Smith’s Leave It to Chance Artist’s Edition. Publishing details for these books will be announced in the future.

George Pérez’s The New Teen Titans Artist’s Edition (ISBN 978-1-5343-3135-8 | SRP $150.00) will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, June 17, 2026, and at booksellers on Tuesday, June 30, 2026.

KANA ANNOUNCES THRILLING ENGLISH RELEASE OF NAOKI URASAWA AND TAKASHI NAGASAKI'S MANGA MASTERPIECE BILLY BAT COMING SUMMER 2026

Volume 1 Scheduled for June 2026 Release, Launching Ambitious Plan to Publish Entire 20-Volume Series in English

New York, NY—AUGUST 21, 2025—Kana, the dedicated manga imprint of Abrams ComicArts, proudly announces the highly anticipated English-language publication of acclaimed manga creator Naoki Urasawa and collaborator Takashi Nagasaki's historical conspiracy thriller, Billy Bat. Beginning in June 2026, Kana will publish Volume 1, kicking off an ambitious schedule of four volumes per year, ultimately releasing all 20 volumes.

Billy Bat is an enthralling, genre-defying series that combines mystery, historical fiction, conspiracy theory, and metafiction, unfolding across multiple eras and continents. Set initially in America in 1949, it follows Japanese-American comics artist Kevin Yamagata, who returns home after serving under the Allied Forces in World War II. Kevin quickly becomes famous for his detective comic character, Billy Bat. However, his newfound success is soon overshadowed by a disturbing revelation—Billy Bat already exists in Japan. Fearing unintentional plagiarism, Kevin embarks on a journey to Japan to uncover the truth, only to find himself ensnared in a tangled web of murders, secret societies, and prophetic mysteries spanning millennia.

Naoki Urasawa, widely recognized as a transformative force in contemporary manga, has been honored with numerous awards including three Shogakukan Manga Awards, two Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prizes, and a Kodansha Manga Award. His highly acclaimed series include Monster, 20th Century Boys, and Pluto (recently adapted by Netflix). South Korean filmmaker Bong Joon-ho (Snowpiercer, Parasite) hailed Urasawa as "the greatest storyteller of our time," while Pulitzer Prize-winning author Junot Díaz described him as a "national treasure in Japan."

Co-creator Takashi Nagasaki is an accomplished author and manga writer known for his collaboration with Urasawa on Monster, 20th Century Boys, and Pluto. Nagasaki brings his expertise in storytelling and deep knowledge of the manga industry, having previously served as an editor at Shogakukan before transitioning into freelance writing.

“Finally bringing Urasawa and Nagasaki's Billy Bat to English readers has been a dream project for the Kana team,” explains Kana Editor Kristiina Korpus. “We can't wait to see how fans react to the announcement and the eventual release. It's been a long time coming for English-speaking fans! Everyone at Kana has been so excited to finally bring this unmatched manga to English and we're all thrilled to finally be able to share it.”

Billy Bat is celebrated for its riveting narrative, which blends historical events with surreal, suspenseful twists and a sharp sense of humor. The series features prominent historical figures including Albert Einstein, Walt Disney (reimagined as "Chuck Culkin"), John F. Kennedy, Neil Armstrong, Adolf Hitler, and even Oda Nobunaga. The series’ innovative approach places it perfectly alongside today's popular historical fiction and speculative drama series like Bridgerton, Outlander, and All the Light We Cannot See, appealing to both dedicated manga enthusiasts and new readers eager to explore the medium.

A perennial fan-favorite often listed among manga readers’ “Top 10 Manga That Need an English Release,” Billy Bat has achieved widespread success and critical acclaim internationally. Kana’s forthcoming publication ensures that English-speaking audiences will finally experience the full scope of Urasawa and Nagasaki’s ambitious storytelling.

Look for Billy Bat Vol. 1 in bookstores and comic shops everywhere in June 2026.

BULLPEN BOOKS SHOWCASES THE POWER OF THOR IN “THE ART OF THE MIGHTY THOR”

The work of Jack Kirby, Walter Simonson, and more, curated for fans of Thor comics and Marvel’s archive of incredible art!

MILWAUKIE, Ore., (December 18, 2025)— Continuing the showcase of characters and creators integral to Marvel Comics history, Dark Horse Books presents Bullpen Books The Art of The Mighty Thor. Following the success of the first two Bullpen Books titles The Art of the Amazing Spider-Man and The Art of Fantastic Four, editors Ian Chalgren, John Lind, and Chris Ryall focus on the work of Jack “King” Kirby and Walter Simonson across iconic issues of Thor. This oversized hardcover volume provides a glimpse into the process and production of Thor through the years, with a stunning collection of covers and original art, reproduced from Marvel’s archival scans, along with a new essay that details the history and importance of both creators’ contributions to the character, caption commentary, and an all-new introduction by Simonson.

Since his debut in 1962, Thor has remained a key character in the Marvel Universe. The Art of The Mighty Thor focuses on the work of two of Thor’s most celebrated and influential illustrators: the legendary Jack “King” Kirby and the inimitable Walter Simonson. It includes two complete stories from Kirby’s definitive run—Thor Annual #2 and Thor #134—and four complete stories from Simonson’s run—Thor #337 (the first appearance of fan-favorite character Beta Ray Bill), Thor #338, Thor #339, and Thor #340.

Dark Horse’s Bullpen Books series showcases characters and creators integral to Marvel Comics history.

About finding early inspiration in Kirby’s Thor comics, as Simonson states in his introduction, “Kirby’s drawing, however, exploded off the page. Even in panels where characters were just talking, the figures were filled with energy just in the way they interacted, gestured, and stood. For me, although I didn’t think of it in this way at the time, Jack’s work introduced me to a whole new visual language for telling stories in the comics format.”

“The brilliance of both artists’ landmark work on Thor is fully on display in this format,” said co-editor Chris Ryall. “And in addition to the gorgeous pencils and inks showcased in these Bullpen Books editions, the editorial notes throughout the book add historical insight and fun color commentary as further enhancement to the black-and-white artwork.”

The third volume featuring the work of Marvel’s Bullpen awaits those worthy of The Art of The Mighty Thor when the 200-page (10" x 14") hardcover edition arrives in bookstores and comic shops on June 9 and 10, 2026, for $59.99. Pre-order now from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or your local bookstore or comic shop. Visit Find Your Comic Shop or Bookshop.org for more details and stores near you.

GRAPHIC NOVEL MEMORIES OF GISELLE A HARD-HITTING COMING-OF-AGE STORY ABOUT OVERCOMING CHILDHOOD TRAUMA, ABUSE

PORTLAND, Ore. 12/11/2025 — Critically-acclaimed cartoonist Katia Vecchio (Silver Vessels, Painted) will make her Image Comics debut with the forthcoming original graphic novel, Memories of Giselle. This hard-hitting coming-of-age tale is set to hit shelves in July 2026.

As Memories of Giselle unfolds with quiet inevitability, a brother and sister move through the fragile terrain of a childhood marked by hidden abuse, silence, and loss. Giselle is pursued by the memory of her late grandmother and by a single, recurring image—an empty boat—an emblem of the truth she has spent years repressing. As adolescence draws her into the bewildering realms of desire, vulnerability, and trust, the fractured pieces of her past begin to align, revealing a story long buried and the shadow it has cast over her and her brother’s present-day lives.

Memories of Giselle is a haunting, deeply compassionate coming-of-age novel that explores the slippery nature of memory, the psychological wounds we walk with, and the fierce, quiet bravery required to reclaim a life shaped by trauma.

“Memories of Giselle is the story I needed to tell in order to give shape to experiences that often remain unspoken," said Vecchio. "My hope is that readers will find, in Giselle’s journey, the courage to look at their own pain with compassion, and to understand that acceptance begins with acknowledging what we’ve had to carry.”

Perfect for readers who enjoyed Zoe Thorogood’s It’s Lonely at the Centre of the Earth, Allie Brosh’s Solutions and Other Problems, and Kate Beaton’s Ducks.

Memories of Giselle (ISBN: 9781534330757) will be available in trade paperback at local comic book shops on Wednesday, June 17, 2026 and independent bookstores, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, Indigo, and Waterstones on Tuesday, July 14, 2026.

American Caper Issue #1 was released on November 12 and has received widespread praise from notable authors and creators across the entertainment and comics industries who have lauded its sharp writing, dark humor, and fearless social satire, as well as from comic book fans at large with very positive ratings on top user reviews sites:

The bold premiere issue pulls no punches and lays a great foundation for what is going to be an exciting, unpredictable ride. — Capes & Tights

It’s unhinged in all the right ways, from its crude comedy to its absurd violence, cramming as much as it can into just its first issue. — Get Your Comic On

An irreverent and surprisingly intriguing crime story, mixing dark humor with well-detailed art. — AIPT Comics

Issue #1 was also the bestselling crime-fiction comic book in America per November ICv2 sales data.

Set in Verona, Wyoming, American Caper follows two neighboring families on the brink of collapse:

A Mormon hitman. A gambling-addict lawyer. Two neighbors intertwined in a real estate deal gone wrong. Mix in a Mexican beauty queen on the run from her past, a red-pilled housewife, two escaped convicts in love, a Wall Street billionaire who has become a cowboy, and a maniac hell-bent on revenge. The manicured wilderness of Verona, Wyoming is the perfect cocktail of American culture: real estate development, violence and snake oil.

From the tax-avoiders in the Rockies, to the thought police of Brooklyn, to the confused political and environmental battlegrounds of Florida, one thing is certain: This tragedy is someone else’s fault.

About Moebius Library: The Depressed Hunter:

In this graphic novel prequel to The Major, Mœbius’s Major Grubert finds himself attempting to chase away the blues, but gets caught up into a surreal adventure.

Praise for Moebius:

"The visuals are enormous, definitely a spectacle, and the story presents [The World of Edenas'] philosophical ideals with nice drama and conflict."—Multiversity Comics

"Colorfully illustrated and as described by its creator, ‘simple, yet very polished.’ [Moebius'] illustrations provide an emphasis to his story that goes beyond simple explanations. One of his gifts is allowing the reader to interpret his vision however you see fit. His approach allows this adventure to build and build, creating an endless landscape of planets, stars, and a variety of uniquely bizarre characters."—Fanbase Press

"It’s funny, it's poignant, it's well translated from the original French, it's unforgettable. If you are a Moebius fan, please add this volume to your collection!"—ICv2

“Moebius, in dialogue, narration and visual storytelling alike, has a Monty Python knack of undercutting the discomfort of the unreal with sudden everyday bathos and undercutting anything too straightforwardly narrative, or potentially deep, with eruptions of outright silliness.”—Starburst Magazine

How did Delilah Briarwood come to be known as a powerful necromancer?

As a student at the Alabaster Lyceum, Delilah was a strategic and cunning mage with deadly ambitions. Her tactical elegance and cold confidence eventually led her to a position at the Soltryce Academy, which provided her a place to conduct her research as well as the opportunity to rub elbows with the rich and powerful of the Dwendalian Empire. With her unwavering focus, everything was going to plan…that is, until she met Sylas Briarwood.

They quickly fell in love and were married, but their life of wedded bliss is tragically upended when Sylas falls ill and succumbs to his rare disease before Delilah can find a cure. Heartbroken and beyond desperate, Delilah turns to a powerful being that ultimately reunites her with her soulmate…with a few monstrous caveats.

Though they can pretend that their life together is back to the way it once was, Delilah and Sylas must now walk down the path of no return. What obstacles will befall the Briarwoods as they attempt to resurrect the Whispered One?

ACT 4 PUBLISHING & SKYBOUND ANNOUNCE GEORGE PÉREZ’S THE NEW TEEN TITANS ARTIST’S EDITION

The Groundbreaking Comic Book Series Comes to A New Format in 2026

LOS ANGELES 09/22/2025 —Skybound, in partnership with Scott Dunbier’s Act 4 Publishing, announced today that one of the most important DC comics series of all time will release in the award-winning Artist’s Edition format as George Pérez’s The New Teen Titans Artist’s Edition arrives in stores June 2026.

Continuing a multi-book deal with DC, George Pérez’s The New Teen Titans Artist’s Edition gives a unique view into how the Teen Titans came to be, featuring a large selection of the artist’s original art, including beautiful covers and a curated selection of pages from issues #1-40 of The New Teen Titans. A heartfelt introduction by Pérez’s longtime collaborator and New Teen Titans co-creator, Marv Wolfman, headlines this stunning 12” x 17” hardcover edition.

“George Pérez’s work struck a chord with fans. His craftsmanship and beautiful imagery showed, to me, his true love of drawing–you could feel the care he put into his art,” said Scott Dunbier. “George’s work is long overdue for an Artist’s Edition and I’m happy it is finally happening.”

A true turning point in comic book history, Marv Wolfman and George Pérez created a massive hit for DC when The New Teen Titans arrived on comic shop shelves in 1980. The team of Robin, Starfire, Wonder Girl, Raven, Kid Flash, Cyborg, and Beast Boy stole readers’ hearts, rivaling even the X-Men for preeminence in the comic market.

"George Pérez is one of the greatest storytellers of my lifetime,” said Sean Mackiewicz, SVP, Publisher, Skybound. “This volume captures his masterful linework like never before, with all the dazzling detail, heartwarming (and heartbreaking) emotion, and awe-inspiring action he rendered on the board.”

An Artist’s Edition is an art book disguised as a comic collection. Although appearing to be in black and white, all the art is scanned in color, enabling the reader to see the work as close to the original as possible – ink gradients, blue pencil, and all the unique nuances that make original art so special – are all clearly visible and printed at the same size as drawn. The only better way to experience these pages is by looking at the artist’s drawing board, as they’re drawing.

George Pérez’s The New Teen Titans Artist’s Edition is the next chapter of the groundbreaking releases from the Act 4 Publishing and Skybound partnership. The previously announced releases include titles releasing in late 2025 (Jim Aparo’s DC Classics Artist’s Edition) and throughout 2026 (The Amazing Spider-Man by Steve Ditko Artist’s Edition, Darwyn Cooke’s The Complete Spirit Connoisseur Edition, Wally Wood's EC Stories Artist’s Edition- EXPANDED and Mike Mignola's Hellboy in Hell Book 2 Artist’s Edition).

Future releases within the publishing partnership include J. Scott Campbell’s Danger Girl Artist Edition, Dave Stevens’ Covers and Stories’ Connoisseur Edition, Jason Pearson’s Body Bags Artist’s Edition, Paul Smith’s Leave It to Chance Artist’s Edition. Publishing details for these books will be announced in the future.

George Pérez’s The New Teen Titans Artist’s Edition (ISBN 978-1-5343-3135-8 | SRP $150.00) will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, June 17, 2026, and at booksellers on Tuesday, June 30, 2026.

Praise for MAGIC: THE GATHERING: Untold Stories—Elspeth:

"Elspeth’s story in this first issue is told in a really beautiful way with the [way] that Owen has done his art. You tack on Hilary’s coloring and Clayton’s lettering work, and this comic speaks for itself."—Nerd Initiative

"Watters delivers a solid, engaging story in this first issue. The story has a fantastic buildup of tension throughout and brilliantly lays out the characters and conflicts for both new readers and those familiar with this world."—Super Powered Fancast

"The layouts, especially the ‘this is your life’ pages are intriguing and visually engaging. The depiction of the gods gives us a feel of their grand scale as they look upon as to what’s going on. Hilary Jenkins’ color gives the comic a look that makes it feel like it takes inspiration more from Wonder Woman than Magic: The Gathering and Clayton Cowles’ lettering adds personality to the characters."—Graphic Policy

KANA ANNOUNCES THRILLING ENGLISH RELEASE OF NAOKI URASAWA AND TAKASHI NAGASAKI'S MANGA MASTERPIECE BILLY BAT COMING SUMMER 2026

Volume 1 Scheduled for June 2026 Release, Launching Ambitious Plan to Publish Entire 20-Volume Series in English

New York, NY—AUGUST 21, 2025—Kana, the dedicated manga imprint of Abrams ComicArts, proudly announces the highly anticipated English-language publication of acclaimed manga creator Naoki Urasawa and collaborator Takashi Nagasaki's historical conspiracy thriller, Billy Bat. Beginning in June 2026, Kana will publish Volume 1, kicking off an ambitious schedule of four volumes per year, ultimately releasing all 20 volumes.

Billy Bat is an enthralling, genre-defying series that combines mystery, historical fiction, conspiracy theory, and metafiction, unfolding across multiple eras and continents. Set initially in America in 1949, it follows Japanese-American comics artist Kevin Yamagata, who returns home after serving under the Allied Forces in World War II. Kevin quickly becomes famous for his detective comic character, Billy Bat. However, his newfound success is soon overshadowed by a disturbing revelation—Billy Bat already exists in Japan. Fearing unintentional plagiarism, Kevin embarks on a journey to Japan to uncover the truth, only to find himself ensnared in a tangled web of murders, secret societies, and prophetic mysteries spanning millennia.

Naoki Urasawa, widely recognized as a transformative force in contemporary manga, has been honored with numerous awards including three Shogakukan Manga Awards, two Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prizes, and a Kodansha Manga Award. His highly acclaimed series include Monster, 20th Century Boys, and Pluto (recently adapted by Netflix). South Korean filmmaker Bong Joon-ho (Snowpiercer, Parasite) hailed Urasawa as "the greatest storyteller of our time," while Pulitzer Prize-winning author Junot Díaz described him as a "national treasure in Japan."

Co-creator Takashi Nagasaki is an accomplished author and manga writer known for his collaboration with Urasawa on Monster, 20th Century Boys, and Pluto. Nagasaki brings his expertise in storytelling and deep knowledge of the manga industry, having previously served as an editor at Shogakukan before transitioning into freelance writing.

“Finally bringing Urasawa and Nagasaki's Billy Bat to English readers has been a dream project for the Kana team,” explains Kana Editor Kristiina Korpus. “We can't wait to see how fans react to the announcement and the eventual release. It's been a long time coming for English-speaking fans! Everyone at Kana has been so excited to finally bring this unmatched manga to English and we're all thrilled to finally be able to share it.”

Billy Bat is celebrated for its riveting narrative, which blends historical events with surreal, suspenseful twists and a sharp sense of humor. The series features prominent historical figures including Albert Einstein, Walt Disney (reimagined as "Chuck Culkin"), John F. Kennedy, Neil Armstrong, Adolf Hitler, and even Oda Nobunaga. The series’ innovative approach places it perfectly alongside today's popular historical fiction and speculative drama series like Bridgerton, Outlander, and All the Light We Cannot See, appealing to both dedicated manga enthusiasts and new readers eager to explore the medium.

A perennial fan-favorite often listed among manga readers’ “Top 10 Manga That Need an English Release,” Billy Bat has achieved widespread success and critical acclaim internationally. Kana’s forthcoming publication ensures that English-speaking audiences will finally experience the full scope of Urasawa and Nagasaki’s ambitious storytelling.

Look for Billy Bat Vol. 1 in bookstores and comic shops everywhere in June 2026.

BULLPEN BOOKS SHOWCASES THE POWER OF THOR IN “THE ART OF THE MIGHTY THOR”

The work of Jack Kirby, Walter Simonson, and more, curated for fans of Thor comics and Marvel’s archive of incredible art!

MILWAUKIE, Ore., (December 18, 2025)— Continuing the showcase of characters and creators integral to Marvel Comics history, Dark Horse Books presents Bullpen Books The Art of The Mighty Thor. Following the success of the first two Bullpen Books titles The Art of the Amazing Spider-Man and The Art of Fantastic Four, editors Ian Chalgren, John Lind, and Chris Ryall focus on the work of Jack “King” Kirby and Walter Simonson across iconic issues of Thor. This oversized hardcover volume provides a glimpse into the process and production of Thor through the years, with a stunning collection of covers and original art, reproduced from Marvel’s archival scans, along with a new essay that details the history and importance of both creators’ contributions to the character, caption commentary, and an all-new introduction by Simonson.

Since his debut in 1962, Thor has remained a key character in the Marvel Universe. The Art of The Mighty Thor focuses on the work of two of Thor’s most celebrated and influential illustrators: the legendary Jack “King” Kirby and the inimitable Walter Simonson. It includes two complete stories from Kirby’s definitive run—Thor Annual #2 and Thor #134—and four complete stories from Simonson’s run—Thor #337 (the first appearance of fan-favorite character Beta Ray Bill), Thor #338, Thor #339, and Thor #340.

Dark Horse’s Bullpen Books series showcases characters and creators integral to Marvel Comics history.

About finding early inspiration in Kirby’s Thor comics, as Simonson states in his introduction, “Kirby’s drawing, however, exploded off the page. Even in panels where characters were just talking, the figures were filled with energy just in the way they interacted, gestured, and stood. For me, although I didn’t think of it in this way at the time, Jack’s work introduced me to a whole new visual language for telling stories in the comics format.”

“The brilliance of both artists’ landmark work on Thor is fully on display in this format,” said co-editor Chris Ryall. “And in addition to the gorgeous pencils and inks showcased in these Bullpen Books editions, the editorial notes throughout the book add historical insight and fun color commentary as further enhancement to the black-and-white artwork.”

The third volume featuring the work of Marvel’s Bullpen awaits those worthy of The Art of The Mighty Thor when the 200-page (10" x 14") hardcover edition arrives in bookstores and comic shops on June 9 and 10, 2026, for $59.99. Pre-order now from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or your local bookstore or comic shop. Visit Find Your Comic Shop or Bookshop.org for more details and stores near you.

GRAPHIC NOVEL MEMORIES OF GISELLE A HARD-HITTING COMING-OF-AGE STORY ABOUT OVERCOMING CHILDHOOD TRAUMA, ABUSE

PORTLAND, Ore. 12/11/2025 — Critically-acclaimed cartoonist Katia Vecchio (Silver Vessels, Painted) will make her Image Comics debut with the forthcoming original graphic novel, Memories of Giselle. This hard-hitting coming-of-age tale is set to hit shelves in July 2026.

As Memories of Giselle unfolds with quiet inevitability, a brother and sister move through the fragile terrain of a childhood marked by hidden abuse, silence, and loss. Giselle is pursued by the memory of her late grandmother and by a single, recurring image—an empty boat—an emblem of the truth she has spent years repressing. As adolescence draws her into the bewildering realms of desire, vulnerability, and trust, the fractured pieces of her past begin to align, revealing a story long buried and the shadow it has cast over her and her brother’s present-day lives.

Memories of Giselle is a haunting, deeply compassionate coming-of-age novel that explores the slippery nature of memory, the psychological wounds we walk with, and the fierce, quiet bravery required to reclaim a life shaped by trauma.

“Memories of Giselle is the story I needed to tell in order to give shape to experiences that often remain unspoken," said Vecchio. "My hope is that readers will find, in Giselle’s journey, the courage to look at their own pain with compassion, and to understand that acceptance begins with acknowledging what we’ve had to carry.”

Perfect for readers who enjoyed Zoe Thorogood’s It’s Lonely at the Centre of the Earth, Allie Brosh’s Solutions and Other Problems, and Kate Beaton’s Ducks.

Memories of Giselle (ISBN: 9781534330757) will be available in trade paperback at local comic book shops on Wednesday, June 17, 2026 and independent bookstores, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, Indigo, and Waterstones on Tuesday, July 14, 2026.

American Caper Issue #1 was released on November 12 and has received widespread praise from notable authors and creators across the entertainment and comics industries who have lauded its sharp writing, dark humor, and fearless social satire, as well as from comic book fans at large with very positive ratings on top user reviews sites:

The bold premiere issue pulls no punches and lays a great foundation for what is going to be an exciting, unpredictable ride. — Capes & Tights

It’s unhinged in all the right ways, from its crude comedy to its absurd violence, cramming as much as it can into just its first issue. — Get Your Comic On

An irreverent and surprisingly intriguing crime story, mixing dark humor with well-detailed art. — AIPT Comics

Issue #1 was also the bestselling crime-fiction comic book in America per November ICv2 sales data.

Set in Verona, Wyoming, American Caper follows two neighboring families on the brink of collapse:

A Mormon hitman. A gambling-addict lawyer. Two neighbors intertwined in a real estate deal gone wrong. Mix in a Mexican beauty queen on the run from her past, a red-pilled housewife, two escaped convicts in love, a Wall Street billionaire who has become a cowboy, and a maniac hell-bent on revenge. The manicured wilderness of Verona, Wyoming is the perfect cocktail of American culture: real estate development, violence and snake oil.

From the tax-avoiders in the Rockies, to the thought police of Brooklyn, to the confused political and environmental battlegrounds of Florida, one thing is certain: This tragedy is someone else’s fault.

To be among the first to secure a pre-order of the inaugural trade paperback collected volume, please visit Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or place an order via your local comic book shop or bookstore. Copies will be available in-store starting June 23, 2026.

About Moebius Library: The Depressed Hunter:

Praise for Moebius:

"The visuals are enormous, definitely a spectacle, and the story presents [The World of Edenas'] philosophical ideals with nice drama and conflict."—Multiversity Comics

"Colorfully illustrated and as described by its creator, ‘simple, yet very polished.’ [Moebius'] illustrations provide an emphasis to his story that goes beyond simple explanations. One of his gifts is allowing the reader to interpret his vision however you see fit. His approach allows this adventure to build and build, creating an endless landscape of planets, stars, and a variety of uniquely bizarre characters."—Fanbase Press

"It’s funny, it's poignant, it's well translated from the original French, it's unforgettable. If you are a Moebius fan, please add this volume to your collection!"—ICv2

“Moebius, in dialogue, narration and visual storytelling alike, has a Monty Python knack of undercutting the discomfort of the unreal with sudden everyday bathos and undercutting anything too straightforwardly narrative, or potentially deep, with eruptions of outright silliness.”—Starburst Magazine

About The Legend of Vox Machina: The Whitestone Chronicles Volume 3—

The Briarwoods:

How did Delilah Briarwood come to be known as a powerful necromancer?

As a student at the Alabaster Lyceum, Delilah was a strategic and cunning mage with deadly ambitions. Her tactical elegance and cold confidence eventually led her to a position at the Soltryce Academy, which provided her a place to conduct her research as well as the opportunity to rub elbows with the rich and powerful of the Dwendalian Empire. With her unwavering focus, everything was going to plan…that is, until she met Sylas Briarwood.

They quickly fell in love and were married, but their life of wedded bliss is tragically upended when Sylas falls ill and succumbs to his rare disease before Delilah can find a cure. Heartbroken and beyond desperate, Delilah turns to a powerful being that ultimately reunites her with her soulmate…with a few monstrous caveats.

Though they can pretend that their life together is back to the way it once was, Delilah and Sylas must now walk down the path of no return. What obstacles will befall the Briarwoods as they attempt to resurrect the Whispered One?
