New Comics for Wednesday, February 25, 2026
/To all of our Brainiacs observing, Ramadan has begun, and we want to extend our warmest wishes to you and your families. Ramadan Mubarak. May this month bring reflection, renewal, generosity, and moments of deep connection. We’re grateful for the many cultures and traditions that make our community strong, and we’re honored to share this space with you.
🎬 Senate Theater – Closing Out Black History Month
Our friends at the historic Senate Theater are wrapping up Black History Month with two absolute heavyweights on the final weekend of February:
Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai
February 27, 2026 – 8:00 PM
A poetic, meditative hitman film from Jim Jarmusch starring Forest Whitaker. Samurai code meets modern urban myth. Cool, quiet, and unforgettable.Blade
February 28, 2026 – 8:00 PM
The daywalker. The trench coat. The blood rave. Before the MCU, there was Blade — stylish, kinetic, and still razor sharp.
If you love comics, cinema, and the intersection of myth and modern storytelling, this is your weekend.
🧠 Brain Candy #75 – Thank You!
Huge gratitude to everyone who joined us for Brain Candy #75. You brought the curiosity, the questions, and the energy — and that’s what makes these gatherings so special.
Brain Candy #76 is set for Monday, March 16.
More details soon… but you already know it’ll be worth clearing your calendar.
✏️ Drink & Draw – You Showed Up
Thank you to everyone who came out for our last Drink & Draw at Downey Brewing Company, co-hosted with Blick Art Materials and Green Brain Comics. The sketchbooks were open, the tables were buzzing, and the creativity was flowing.

Second Friday energy. More info soon. Sharpen those pencils.

🔥 Spotlight Releases – Hitting Next Week
Before we unleash the full list, let’s talk about the heavy hitters landing soon…
Predator: Bloodshed #1
An underground martial arts tournament. The fiercest fighters on Earth. One shadowy organization pulling the strings.
And then… a Predator enters the ring.
Jordan Morris teams with Roland Boschi and Ruairi Coleman for a brutal, high-impact survival story where the competitors aren’t just fighting for a trophy — they’re fighting to not become one. Tournament arcs are already electric. Add a Yautja hunter? Now we’re talking chaos. Rated Parental Advisory for a reason.
Choose your fighter. Place your bets. Try to survive.
The Peril of the Brutal Dark: An Ezra Cain Mystery #1 (of 6)
New York City, 1941. Private investigator Ezra Cain takes a case involving a stolen artifact — an ancient anvil said to carry the power of Hephaestus. Yes, that Hephaestus.
From the powerhouse team behind That Texas Blood, Chris Condon and Jacob Phillips introduce a noir icon in the making. Shadowy sects. Occult science. Government conspiracy. Golden Age grit colliding with mythic power. This one feels like trench coats in the rain with a spark of cosmic fire underneath.
If you love hardboiled detectives with impossible cases, this is your new obsession.
Rocketeer: The Island #1
The Rocketeer returns.
Cliff Secord is recruited to search for Amelia Earhart — but the missing pilot may not be the only thing waiting on that island. Romance, pulp adventure, mystery, and jetpacks collide in a brand-new story inspired by an unpublished outline from creator Dave Stevens.
Writer John Layman and artist Jacob Edgar channel classic high-flying adventure with modern storytelling snap. If you’ve missed old-school swashbuckling heroics with heart, this one’s calling your name.
Strap in.
New History of the DC Universe: The Dakota Incident #1 (One-Shot)
A powerful Black History Month spotlight issue spinning out of DC’s evolving canon. When a murder ignites conflict between Dakota City’s heroes and the U.S. government, Static, Rocket, and more are pushed into a battle that reshapes their world.
With a stacked creative team including Joseph P. Illidge, Stephanie Williams, Morgan Hampton, and Nikolas Draper-Ivey, this is both a celebration and a reckoning — past and present colliding in one pivotal chapter.
Essential reading for Milestone fans and DC historians alike.
Amazing Spider-Man/Venom: Death Spiral #1 [DS]
The next great symbiote nightmare begins here.
A calculating new killer named Torment targets Peter Parker’s inner circle with surgical precision. The danger escalates fast, forcing Spider-Man into an uneasy alliance with the one partner he can never fully trust: Venom.
From Charles Soule, Joe Kelly, and Al Ewing, with intense art by Jesús Saíz, this is ground zero for the Death Spiral crossover rippling through Amazing Spider-Man and Venom. Secrets. Violence. Psychological pressure. The fuse is lit.
And Now…
Below is the full New Comics List for Wednesday, February 25, 2026.
Scan it. Plan it. Add to your pull. Spot something unexpected.
