DC Comics has announced its lineup for the 2026 New York Comic Con, held from October 8 to 11. The company’s booth will feature a 1950s theme to celebrate an era of reinvention and experimentation. New fan experiences include a 360-degree cosplay photo activation and digital queueing systems for in-booth signings to manage crowds.

Collectors can access limited-edition items, such as foil covers for titles like ‘Absolute Batman’ #1 and ‘Absolute Wonder Woman’ #1, as well as exclusive hardcovers and ‘Lanterns’ replica rings.

Additionally, DC will reveal new LEGO DC sets, including an 18+ adult-oriented set featuring an iconic villain and three new Batman-themed vehicles. These sets are expected to tie into the ‘LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight’ game, offering new unlockable content.
