Next week is the 9th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers DC Comics February 26 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering DC Comics February 19 2025 new releases.

This week in DC Comics: Absolute Wonder Woman wraps up an arc, Taylor’s Batman gets more entangled, Morrison & Millar’s Flash goes Deluxe, Harley Pygs out, Spurrier’s very hard Hellblazer, Lois Lane is a super time-traveller, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: Joshua Willamson’s Superman (2023) #23 had reached the rare point that I’m thinking about the book randomly during unrelated moments of my day, wondering where he will take things next. I’m a sucker for a Doomsday story, especially one that plays with his origins and purpose. This is about as fun as Superman gets for me! However, it was a very close call between picking this and Batman: The Long Halloween – The Last Halloween (2024) #5 (of 10) – featuring The Joker as rendered by Bill Sienkiewicz.

This post includes every comic out from DC Comics February 26 2025, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats.

This isn’t the typical comic releases post you can find on other sites. Why? I explain each collection and review every in-continuity series with a new issue out this week. Plus, for most new releases, I’ll point you to a personally-curated guide within the Crushing Comics Guide to DC Comics to find out how to collect that title in full!

There’s no other website on the internet that can claim that.

This week in Marvel Comics: Red Hulk returns, Rogue & Ka-Zar, a final New Mutants Epic, the end of Ewing’s Eddie Brock, Jack of Heart Masterworks, the West Coast gets romantic, the Amazing X-Men, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: This is wild, but my pick is Rogue: The Savage Land (2025) #2! Can this be real? Is Krisis really highlighting a flashback retcon mini-series? If you read issue #1 you’d understand – as did literally every person who read this book who chimed in during my live stream review last month. Tim Seeley, Zulema Scotto Lavina, Rachelle Rosenberg, & Ariana Maher are delivering something that’s incredibly fun and that feels entirely on-voice who Rogue was at the end of Claremont’s run.

This week in DC Comics: a new god on Earth, answers for The Question, long-awaited Golden Age Wonder Woman, Titans get psycho, Red Hood’s Hill, a perfectly imperfect Shazam, a Milestone climax, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: Despite being excited for several comics this week, this is an easy pick – The New Gods (2024) #3! Just the idea of seeing one more page of Evan Cagle’s artwork colored by Francesco Segala makes me giddy, which says nothing of the intergalactic mystery of this story.

The Krisis Pick of the Week: This might surprise you, but for me it’s Doom Academy (2025) #1! The Strange Academy kids eventually won me over, and I’m really curious to see how their personalities evolve while under Doctor Doom’s tutelage. Plus, Kid Krisis has all of their trade paperbacks and has literally been asking me about when this new issue would come out at least once a week since Marvel teased it late last year.
