Joe Casey (MCMLXXV, Butcher Baker the Righteous Maker) and artist Paul Fry (Spider-Man 2099, Star Wars) are bringing readers Blood Squad Seven Yearbook #1, an oversized, high-impact special arriving from Image Comics in March 2026.
The extra-length issue serves as the explosive capstone to Blood Squad Seven’s sprawling international—and interdimensional—saga. Promising major revelations and irreversible consequences, the Yearbook sets the stage for worlds colliding, heroes pushed to their limits, legends falling, and a status quo that won’t survive what’s coming.
“Paul and I have been building up to this for the previous 13 consecutive issues, all leading to this 30-page Yearbook spectacular,” said Casey. “We’ve put everything we have into this one and we think the results will speak for themselves. For every reader who loves their 1990s-style superheroes deconstructed and deepened in the way you’ve always wanted—this is the big one!”
Spinning out of 2024’s Dutch mini-series, Blood Squad Seven reexamines the excess, spectacle, and team dynamics of ’90s superhero comics through a modern lens.
Thirty years ago, Blood Squad Seven wasn’t just a superhero team—they were a cultural phenomenon. Their faces were everywhere, from TV screens to magazine covers, backed by massive endorsement deals and celebrity-level fame. They defined an era.
That era is long gone.
In the present day, a new generation steps into their shadow, inheriting not just the legacy but the unresolved promises and buried mistakes left behind. Tasked with becoming the heroes a fractured America now needs, they discover that the mantle may be less a gift and more a curse.
While many nostalgic superhero deconstructions focus on Silver Age icons, Blood Squad Seven goes straight to the heart of ’90s comic book mythology, asking what really happens when the heroes of that era return after a 30-year absence—and whether the world is ready for them at all.
Blood Squad Seven Yearbook #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, March 25, 2026:
- Cover A by Paul Fry
- Cover B 1:10 copy incentive by Jim Rugg
