The revolution is in community organizing and mobilization. It’s in mutual aid. It’s in standing up for our neighbors and human dignity. And every once in a while it sneaks its way into a Disney product. Ultimates continues to be the most subversive superhero comic on the shelf.

Phantom of the Opera, Peril of the Brutal Dark, and Is Ted Ok? launched with killer first issues. Power Fantasy and Author Immortal continue to deliver top notch comics. And that’s all on top of Absolute Wonder Woman Absolute Martian Manhunter Manhunter, and The Ultimates. Best day of the week

We’ve temporarily sold out of Is Ted Ok? 1, but more are on their way! Stoked to see the excitement and positive word of mouth helping a great book find its audience.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a guy in a pawn shop talking to the employee at the counter. He has about half a loaf of bread in a bag in front of him. The seller asks, β€œhow much will you give me for this stale bread?” Panel 2: the unsure employee replies, β€œtell ya whatβ€” I got a buddy who’s an expert on this stuff.” Panel 3: a goose in a hat and sunglasses walks confidently through the shop entrance towards the counter.

Go buy Bleeding Hearts 1 today. It’s funny and contemplative and gross and brutal in all the best ways; it drips with humanity. Excellent character design and art from Moran. Deniz Camp is on a can’t miss streak. Vertigo is BACK

Many ask this, so happy to say it plainly: Vertigo is the imprint for original creator-owned stories; Black Label is the imprint for DC's library of company-owned characters! Over the next couple years, the in-print back catalogue will reflect that. Full explainer here: www.dc.com/blog/2026-02...

It’s a marketing layup but I *LOVE* seeing DC promote non superhero comics to people through the Absolute line. Knowing the readership Absolute has brought in and attempting to capitalize on the opportunity that presents could be huge for the creator owned direct market.
