PORTLAND, Ore. 05/21/2026 — Lost Fantasy creator Curt Pires (Indigo Children), singer/songwriter Franklin Jonas, and artist Patrick Mulholland’s new series Fireborn has sold out completely at the distributor level yet again. The debut issue of this new series is being rushed back to print this week by Image Comics in order to keep up with rising demand. The Fireborn #1, third printing cover will feature new art by Mulholland.
“Team Fireborn is blown away by the continued support of our amazing readership and retailer partners,” said Pires. “We launched massive in April with Image Comics #1 new series launch of the month—and you guys burnt through our stock and sent us to a second printing in record time. And now here we are again. We are humbled and grateful for the support and committed to telling a massive Image Comics epic that you can sit on the shelves beside all time greats like Spawn and Invincible. The next great Image Comics hero has arrived, and we're just getting started.”
And Fireborn #3 will boast an additional variant by artist Jarett Hartnell, which shows off antihero, Nekros, who makes his first appearance in the issue.
In Fireborn, Aaron Hillburg was just another rich-kid failson—ghosting his responsibilities, hopping rooftops, and hating his billionaire father in peace… until a mysterious floating dragon egg bonds to him and ignites a hidden lineage of ancient magic inside his body. Now every violent outlaw wizard, biker cultist, and supernatural warlord between New York City and The World Beneath is hunting him—and they’ll burn the world down to pry the egg from his corpse.
A high octane fusion of fantasy and superheroes, this new series is perfect for fans of Invincible, How To Train Your Dragon, and Absolute Batman.
