Antarctic Press has announced the highly anticipated launch of Superverse #1 as part of its May 2026 solicits, coinciding with other engaging titles aimed at collectors and retailers alike.
Ben Dunn has hinted at an upcoming distribution agreement which could significantly shift Antarctic Press’s market dynamics.
