LATE: Six Months Between Gotham Academy: First Year #3 And #4

There will now be six months between the DC Comics publication of Gotham Academy: First Year #3 and Gotham Academy: First Year #4

Gotham Academy: First Year #4 and subsequent issues are getting even later. Its original on-sale date was the 14th of January, then delayed until 4th of February, is now delayed until the 27th of May. That's a four-and-a-half-month delay and almost six months since #3, which came out on the 3rd of December. Then Gotham Academy: First Year #5 was originally for the 4th of February, then delayed until the 6th of May, and is now delayed until the 24th of June, almost five months late. Gotham Academy: First Year #6 is still scheduled for the 29th of July, when the intended solicited date was the 4th of March. But odds are that will be delayed further as well. Any longer and it will be Gotham Academy: Second Year already.

  SCHOOL IS A NIGHTMARE. LITERALLY. Gotham Academy's first day of school comes with new schedules, new secrets… and a creeping sense that nothing is quite what it seems. For Olive Silverlock, the search for her missing mother takes a turn into forgotten memories, closed doors, and conversations she swears she's already had. But how do you retrace your steps when you don't remember walking? $4.99 5/6/2026
