Article Summary
- Absolute Batman #24 is officially delayed two weeks, moving from September 9, 2026 to September 23, 2026.
- DC’s updated listing confirms Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta’s Absolute Batman #24 will now ship at $4.99.
- Absolute Batman #24 arrives slightly oversized, while Gotham Academy: First Year #6 slips to August 5, 2026.
- Wonder Woman Historia Absolute Edition and Batman: Gotham Adventures Omnibus Vol. 1 also receive later dates.
Absolute Batman #24, solicited for the 9th of September 2026 only last week, will be two weeks late, arriving in comic book stores for the 23rd of September 2026. It has been suggested to me that DC Comics may not want to publish a comic famed for its political fractiousness, set in a Gotham that looks very much like New York, on the Wednesday before, or the Wednesday after, the twenty-fifth anniversary of 9/11, but apparently not. It’s just going to be a wee bit bigger than normal. For different reasons, Gotham Academy: First Year #6 , which has already been cancelled and resolicited one, will ship on the 5th of August, a week after its latest original date, the 29th of July. Late for class again? We will have words… the series collection will be published in May next year. While Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons: Absolute Edition HC, intended for the 11th of August, will instead be in bookstores and comic shops for the week of the 8th of September. And Batman: Gotham Adventures Omnibus Vol. 1 HC will be published on the 10th of November rather than the 20th of October.

$4.99 8/5/2026 - Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons: Absolute Edition by Kelly Sue DeConnick, Phil Jimenez, Gene Ha, Nicola Scott
A myth reborn in fire, fury, and breathtaking beauty—Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons is a visionary reimagining of the Amazon origin, crafted by Eisner-nominated writer Kelly Sue DeConnick and brought to life by three of comics’ greatest artists in a masterpiece worthy of the Absolute Edition format. Before Wonder Woman, before Themyscira, before the world had a word for “Amazon,” the goddesses of Olympus made a choice that defied heaven. Out of anger, grief, and divine purpose, they created a new society—one shaped entirely by women, forged to protect the powerless, and destined to challenge the cruelty of gods and men alike. Across generations, a single thread binds their hidden history: Hippolyta, a mortal woman whose burning will, fierce compassion, and unimaginable loss lead her toward a destiny that will change the world. Kelly Sue DeConnick (Captain Marvel, Bitch Planet) partners with three artistic titans—Phil Jimenez (Wonder Woman, Invisible Woman), Gene Ha (Top 10, Mae), and Nicola Scott (Black Magick, Wonder Woman: Year One)—to deliver a sweeping mythic epic of war, sisterhood, and the birth of one of DC’s greatest icons. Jimenez paints divine rebellion with operatic grandeur, Ha renders Hippolyta’s mortal journey with emotional intimacy, and Scott brings the saga to a towering, explosive crescendo as the Amazons clash with Olympus itself. Presented in a definitive Absolute Edition, this volume honors one of the most visually stunning and critically acclaimed DC stories of the modern era.
