Dynamite December 2025 Solicitations

OUT OF THE SHADOWS! After her royal spouse was burned alive before her eyes, Queen Juliana turned her back on the gods of balance and pledged her life to the Wolf-God, Ulghir. In secret, she bled for him. In silence, she absorbed his teachings. And then, in darkness, she gave birth to two sons — one conceived in love, the other from black magic — thus setting in motion the tragic events that spell doom for the Realms of Ice and Fire! Written by SARA FRAZETTA and illustrated by GEOF ISHERWOOD — with hauntingly handsome covers by DAN PANOSIAN, JAE LEE & JUNE CHUNG, and STEVE E. GORDON — FIRE AND ICE: NEKRON unearths the twisted origin of one of fantasy’s most terrifying villains, weaving a cautionary tale of grief, rage, and the ultimate corruption of ambition.

THE WARRIOR’S PATH! Denial, anger, bargaining, depression… Maggie Sutherland has worked her way through all the stages of grief and is finally ready to accept the harsh reality that she really is Red Sonja, and that if she is going to survive in the Hyborian Age she must rise to meet its challenges — and that means learning how to kill her enemies before they can kill her!

Dynamite catalog featuring our solicited titles available to retailers and fans each month.

THUS SPAKE VAMPIRELLA! Ever since her long-lost friend returned from the grave in the form of an AI-created automaton, Vampirella has been plagued by fundamental questions of existence. Is the Daughter of Drakulon an actual person? Does she have a soul? Or is she just her mother’s construct, like the simulacrum of her friend produced by the living algorithm ARIS? Vampi’s powerful emotional connection to this echo of her lost loved one forces her to confront lingering questions about her own agency and right to exist — and there are no easy answers in sight. Weighty philosophers CHRISTOPHER PRIEST and DAVIS GOETTEN gaze into the abyss in VAMPIRELLA #10 — leavened by reassuringly refined covers from LUCIO PARRILLO, DERRICK CHEW, JOSEPH MICHAEL LINSNER, ELIAS CHATZOUDIS, and cosplay by RACHEL HOLLON!

WELCOME TO SCRUMP WORLD! Lilo’s beloved doll Scrump takes center stage when Dr. Jumba “borrows” her for a new experiment. As part of his research into novel avenues of scientific villainy (purely theoretical, of course!), Jumba wires Scrump up to a new device designed to turn his enemies into dolls. It’s a simple proof-of-concept procedure with no real risks — but considering that Stitch is loose in the lab, maybe Jumba shouldn’t have made the button that says “DO NOT PRESS!” quite so big, red, and shiny! In the aftermath, Jumba, Agent Pleakley, and Stitch find themselves pondering new lives as adorably undersized playthings while a newly mobile (and considerably enlarged) Scrump heads out to see the world. But how far-reaching are the effects of Jumba’s latest technological breakthrough? And more important: are they reversible? Discover the surprising answers in STITCH #5, from creative action figures CONNOR RATLIFF, JAMES III, and GRETA XELLA — featuring backing card covers from EDWIN GALMON, JAE LEE & JUNE CHUNG, CIRO CANGIALOSI, and GEORGE KAMBADAIS!

GHOSTS OF WINTERS PAST! For Elisa Maza, December is bittersweet. She loves the snowy streets of New York City and the bustle of the holiday season — and having a Gargoyle boyfriend who carries her above the skyscrapers to see all of the festive lights is a pretty great perk. But the month also reminds her of an unsolved mystery from her first year as a detective — a baffling break-in that featured odd clues, a stolen family heirloom, and vague descriptions of a lumbering “thing” that was seen only in the shadows. As she tells Goliath one icy winter night, the fact that she was never able to crack the case still gnaws at her, even after all these years. And that’s all that Broadway needs to overhear to convince him to don his private eye trench coat and reopen the investigation — accompanied, of course, by Bronx and his bull terrier pal, Lance! Co-written by GARGOYLES creator GREG WEISMAN and NATE COSBY, and illustrated by GEORGE KAMBADAIS, this 40-page one-shot uncovers a chilly new chapter in the saga of the Stone Guardians — frosted with crystalline covers from KAMBADAIS, JAE LEE & JUNE CHUNG, ROGER LANGRIDGE, and ALESSANDRO RANALDI!

WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS DEFINITELY ISN’T STAYING IN VEGAS! With the arrival of Dejah Thoris and the revelation of her mission to track down a certain mad Martian scientist, things on post-apocalyptic Earth are looking up for the first time since the Deadmen Plague began. All that Purgatori has to do is capture Dejah’s quarry — the renegade Kaldane science-criminal Taak — and she’ll hold the keys to the humanity’s future in her iron grip. But Taak’s fortress deep inside Hoover Dam will be a tough nut to crack. Luckily for Purgatori’s involuntary expeditionary force, fate is about to provide them with a genuine Sin City insider — and she’s a real devil with a sword, too! High rollers FRED VAN LENTE and MARCO FINNEGAN put it all on red in DIE!NAMITE: BLOOD RED #3 — featuring scintillating side bets from EJ SU, ROBERTO MELI, EMILIO PILLIU, and WILL ROBSON!
