As new comic day quickly approaches it can be sometimes difficult to decide which of the new comics hitting the shelves at your local comic shop to grab. Do not worry, we are here to help. This week we preview four titles that standout from the crowd including Lobo #1, Dead Teenagers #1, and more!
While we are not the official voice of your decision, we want to help guide you in the right direction for comics releasing March 18, 2026.
Lobo #1
Writer: Skottie Young
Artist: Jorge Corona
Publisher: DC Comics
VRRRRROOOOOOMMMMMMMM! The Main Man’s back, baby! And his ride is a motorcycle that moves at the speed of sound, but only if that sound is a rippin’ guitar solo, and you better hop on before he leaves you in the dust with all the bastiches he’s fragged for money or convenience! The Eisner-nominated creative team that brought you a fantastic parable of adolescence in the Midwest, the story of an artist who embraces darkness a little too closely, and the tale of a gunslinger with too much grit to stay buried brings you a classic yarn spun in the star-kissed threads of the cosmic DC Universe.
It’s a guts-soaked path from DC K.O. to the end of the universe, where Lobo is going to scratch his name and number in the Source Wall with a cool knife. Don’t miss the mayhem, special guests, or tasty, tasty continuity! Don’t you do it!
Dead Teenagers #1
Writer: Jude Ellison S. Doyle
Artist: Caitlin Yarsky
Publisher: Oni Press
Since 1997, five friends have been trapped in the ultimate nightmare as a mysterious entity forces them to relive their first prom night over and over again… and re-kills them in new and increasingly insane ways each time. They dress up. They party. They make out. And no matter what they try to change, they always die… until now. Something is about to break the cycle that has kept Alicia, J.T., Ryder, Brandy, and their group of friends locked in a bizarre purgatory beyond all understanding… but what they find on the other side will be the most disturbing revelation of all.
Hell is the ’90s in this brash and brutal, genre-distorting ode to the generation that gave us Scream and Buffy the Vampire Slayer — and what’s become of them since — as GLAAD Award–nominated writer Jude Ellison S. Doyle (Maw, Be Not Afraid) and hyper-talented artist Caitlin Yarsky (Black Hammer Reborn, EC’s Cruel Universe) unleash the year’s most clever and compulsively page-turning horror thriller.
Deathstroke: The Terminator #1
Writer: Tony Fleecs
Artist: Carmine Di Giandomenico
Publisher: DC Comics
Soldier-turned-superhuman assassin for hire Slade Wilson has made hundreds of enemies in his day, and now one of them is taking his world apart piece by piece. The hit is out on Deathstroke as he evolves into his purest form… a terminator out for revenge and ready to kill anyone who stands in his way.
Prepare for brutal violence with over-the-top action and intrigue from the twisted mind of writer Tony Fleecs (Stray Dogs, Uncanny Valley) with pulse-pounding art by Carmine Di Giandomenico (Flash). DC’s contract killing bogeyman is back and bloodier than ever!
The Creeping Below TP
Writer: Brian Azzarello
Artist: Vanesa Del Rey
Publisher: BOOM! Studios
Val, an American heavy metal fanatic, is on her dream vacation: attending the Inferno Metal Festival in Oslo, Norway. There she meets a charismatic young band, who take her out to a remote forest to show her the local “haunts.” Taken by their charm and oblivious to the danger, Val is drugged, beaten, and left for dead…
But her story is far from over.
She wakes at dawn, haunted by a vision of rain falling from a wolf’s jowls. Stumbling back to Oslo, she finds that the festival has already ended — 13 years ago.
The world has moved on and the men who brutalized her are long gone, but when moss and roots begin to sprout from her skin… she realizes that everything has changed. Everything except her desire for revenge, that is.
In nature, there are gods older than man, and something ancient, something… hungry, has awakened powers in her that will guide her rage as she seeks to exact justice on those that wronged her.
Writer Brian Azzarello and Vanesa Del Rey deliver a bloodsoaked feminist revenge saga, blending Norse mythology and eco-horror into a boundary-pushing cocktail of metal, magic, and murder!
The Creeping Below is a daring experiment that melds mythology, music, horror with modern-day angst that is rare in comics today. While its initial pacing might test your patience, both Brian Azzarello’s intricate layers along with Vanesa Del Rey’s and Jenkins’s artistry promise payoffs down the line. The Creeping Below is a great addition to the horror season. – CLICK HERE to read the entire review of the first issue
