'Space Ghost' Celebrates a Year of Acclaimed, Fan-Fave Tales With Oversized Annual

 "Combining the drama of science fiction film serials and the action of the animated series, Pepose and company have found the right formula for one of the year's best titles." - Lotusland Comics 


Soaring into space, and then back down to the hands of readers, this June Dynamite Entertainment and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products are excited to announce the Space Ghost Annual! This special issue acts as a capstone to the title's storylines to date, and teases what is yet to come!

"From the very beginning, Space Ghost has been a true labor of love from me and artist Jonathan Lau, bringing together the best parts of superheroes and science fiction — and we're so excited for readers to finally witness the epic showdown that we've been building up to all along!," said series writer David Pepose. "We've been so lucky to have an army of creators, fans, retailers, and press tirelessly champion our work, and I can't wait for everyone to see what Jonathan and I have coming next. The future couldn't be more exciting — or more dangerous — for Space Ghost and his intergalactic found family!"

The new era of Space Ghost comics has been a great hit, critical darling, and a blast for fans, by all accounts. Its all-star creative team of David Pepose (Captain Planet, Cable) and Jonathan Lau (Red Sonja, Green Hornet) pour their passion into each and every page alongside the rest of the creative team. Space Ghost has been a perfect concoction of the timeless original Hanna-Barbera DNA and the most thrilling superhero storytelling ingredients of the modern era, all channeled through super-fans.

With its first full year and 12 issues down, Pepose and the team needed extra real estate to wrap up their latest epic chapter. The big Robo Corp storyline comes to a close within the annual, as readers learn more about Dr. Xander Ibal's devious plans for Blip. It's all leading to an evil scheme to unleash the malevolent artificial intelligence known as Ultima!

The fan-favorite crew of Space Ghost alongside Jan and Jace will have to take down the whole Council of Doom if they hope to stop Ultima's schemes for intergalactic control. Will the scion of the spaceways be able to rid the universe of the terrifying new threat?

At the very end of this extra-length treat for new and old Space Ghost fans alike, there will also be an exciting tease for a powerful new villain. Set to be center stage for the next exciting Space Ghost storylines, fans will not want to miss this essential release that promises to kick off Space Ghost's most thrilling adventures yet!

The annual features 28 pages of story, and covers by Francesco Mattina, Jae Lee, Bjorn Barends, and Anthony Marques.

SPACE GHOST ANNUAL #1 will be solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ April 2025 Previews catalog, the premier source of merchandise for the comic book specialty market, and slated for release in June 2025. Comic book fans are encouraged to preorder copies of the book with their local comic book retailers.
