Mike Mignola Unveils

Get ready to mark your calendars for late 2026, because Mike Mignola, the legendary creator of Hellboy, is unleashing "some of the best work I've done" in Circus of Bones: The Art of Mike Mignola. This new hardcover art catalog, announced for November 25, 2026, also signals a surprising shift, arriving from Act 4 Publishing, Skybound, and Image Comics, with Dark Horse conspicuously absent.

Mignola's eagerly awaited collection will feature over 145 original pieces, including 53 entirely new watercolor paintings created specifically for an upcoming New York City gallery exhibition. Scott Dunbier of Act 4 Publishing calls these watercolors "extraordinary," suggesting Mignola has reached "another level" of artistry. This 144-page volume will be the official companion to the show at the Philippe Labaune Gallery. The long lead time underscores the significance of this project and Mignola's personal excitement. It also cements Act 4 and Skybound's growing partnership in art-focused publications, a trend fans should certainly watch.
