Abrams ComicArts and Marvel have announced two new titles to be published in Spring 2026.
In Thor: Behemoth of the Black Moon, by writer and artist Eric Powell, Thor grapples with the dark legacy left by his father, Odin, and the consequences of the past that still haunt the present. The book is part of the Marvel Arts line, which is curated by Alex Ross and edited by Abrams Editor-in-Chief Charles Kochman (see “Abrams ComicArts Launching Marvel Graphic Novel Line”). The 80-page hardcover, with an 8 1/2” x 11” trim size, will go on sale on May 12, 2026, with an MSRP of $25.99.
“I didn’t want to waste this opportunity, so I’m doing exactly what I want—a big cosmic adventure with giant Kirby style monsters,” Powell said in a statement accompanying the announcement. “Yeah, this book is absolutely my love letter to Jack Kirby and Walt Simonson, and I think their influences will be clear.”
Also in the works is Marvels: The Novelization, a prose adaptation of Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross’s 1994 series, written by Steve Darnell with black and white and full color illustrations by Ross. The prose novel expands on the story of New York photojournalist Phil Sheldon, who follows the events of the Marvel Universe from the ground. The 352-page hardcover will be released on May 19, 2026, with an MSRP of $26.99.
