Plus: Gotham City Sirens go Black Label, a return to Dakota, and a DC K.O. special that opens the forbidden door …

Slugfest is a roundup of cool announcements about projects coming to a shelf near you. This edition focuses on DC’s February 2026 solicitations.

The panel “DC Vertigo: We’re Back,” moderated by Executive Editor Chris Conroy, was the first public showcase of the imprint’s comeback and the creators — some new, some familiar — who will bring it back to life.

The return will see 10 titles in 2026, including the return of The Nice House by the Sea with issue #7 in February. Joining Nice House are nine more series spanning horror, science fiction, noir and more:
