New Comics for Wednesday, June 10, 2026
/Summer is here—and whether you’re heading out of town, hiding from the heat, or just looking for a better way to spend an afternoon than doomscrolling, this is your reminder: reading still rules.
And right now, it matters more than ever. With continued talk of a “learning recession” and declining reading scores, the simple act of picking up a book—any book—carries real weight. Comics count. Graphic novels count. Stories count. They build attention, spark imagination, and remind us how to sit with something longer than a notification.
Supporting your local comic shop is part of that ecosystem. When you shop at Green Brain Comics, you’re not just buying books—you’re helping keep a space alive that champions reading, creativity, and community. That matters. It always has.
So yeah—load up your summer reading stack. We’ve got you covered.
Last Call: The Final Order Report drops every Friday afternoon and is your last, best chance to lock in upcoming books before Final Order Cutoff. We break down what’s heating up, what’s flying under the radar, and what you might regret missing once it’s gone. If you like getting ahead of the crowd (and avoiding aftermarket heartbreak), this is required viewing.
BrainScan goes live every Tuesday at 6:30 PM, giving you an early preview of the fresh comics hitting the racks on Wednesday. We walk through the week’s new releases, spotlight can’t-miss books, and call out the sleepers worth grabbing before they disappear. If you like knowing what’s waiting for you before the doors open, BrainScan has you covered.

Before we get to the shelves, the calendar’s got a few things worth circling:
The Dirty Dozen (1967)
June 6, 2026 • 8:00–11:00 PM
Senate Theater Event Page
A classic war film on the big screen at the Senate Theater—because some movies deserve more than your couch and a half-distracted watch.

Event Details
Facebook Event
Join us for East Dearborn’s Drink & Draw at Downey Brewing, a relaxed, welcoming night of creativity and community co-sponsored by Blick Art Materials – Dearborn, Green Brain Comics, and Downey Brewing Company. Artists of all skill levels are invited to bring their own projects or jump into fun drawing prompts, with art supply samples and surprises provided. Bring your favorite tools, grab a drink, bring some take-out (the brewery is food-friendly), and settle in for an easygoing evening of sketching, sharing ideas, and connecting with fellow creatives. Held on the second Friday of every other month, it’s the perfect excuse to make some art and hang out.

Spotlight Books
He-Man and the Masters of the Universe: The Wings of Fate #1
Tim Sheridan and Will Sliney kick off a new adventure set in the upcoming Masters of the Universe film universe. In the aftermath of Skeletor’s assault, a refugee’s quiet act of compassion—saving an injured falcon—spirals into a dangerous journey across Eternia. Big fantasy stakes, classic characters, and a story that leans into myth and momentum.
M1 Monster Racing League #1
From Jae Lee and June Chung comes a high-speed, neon-soaked sci-fi series set in a near-future Tokyo where underground racing is fueled by mutation and ambition. When a teenager is pulled into this world, it’s not just about winning—it’s about survival. Think street racing chaos with a surreal, stylish edge.
M.A.S.K. #1
The Energon Universe expands in a big way. Dan Watters and Pye Parr launch a new era with Matt Trakker assembling a high-tech response team against a rapidly escalating global threat. Vehicles transform, secrets unravel, and the arms race is already underway. Bonus chaos: blind bag variants with surprise covers lurking inside.
Absolute Catwoman #1 (of 6)
Selina Kyle at the absolute peak of her game—wealthy, equipped, and untouchable. Until she isn’t. When her past catches up, the world’s greatest thief is pulled into a globe-spanning mystery that tests every skill she’s mastered. Scott Snyder, Che Grayson, and Bengal deliver a sleek, high-stakes reinvention.
Jay & Silent Bob: Jays of Future Past #1
Kevin Smith finally brings the Quick Stop philosophers into full-blown superhero chaos. When Doctor Doom decides the duo needs to go, it takes the combined might of Marvel’s biggest heroes to keep them alive. It’s ridiculous, self-aware, and exactly as over-the-top as you want it to be.
And That’s Not All…
That’s just the front of the stack. New issues, new arcs, surprise hits—they’re all waiting.
Build your summer reading pile. Try something new. Revisit something you love. Just… read something.
We’ll see you Wednesday.
