So Exactly When Are Those Murder Drones Comics Coming Out Anyway?

"So when exactly are those Murder Drones comics coming out anyway?" I have heard you, I have heard you, here's your answer...

One of the questions I have been asked a lot of late has been "When is the Murder Drones comic book coming out?" I mean, a lot. Murder Drones by Wyatt Kennedy and Jo Mi-Gyeong from Oni Press, based on the Amazon Prime animated series, stormed through Kickstarter, beating out Keanu Reeves, and launched in February, when they promised two books in the same month. No seriously, here's the checklist they published to prove it.

And since then, it has become a rather hot book on the aftermarket, rising in price on eBay and making the Hottest Comics lists. But that second issue? It was two months late and came out in April. So now we have another list and a promise that issue 3 will also be out in April. On the 29th.

And as it stands, they are sticking to their new schedule, with a new issue coming out on the last Wednesday of every month, and an extra special one-shot in June as well. If you need something to refer to, here are all; the solicits so far…

• MURDER DRONES #1 (OF 6)
  (W) Wyatt Kennedy (A) Jo Mi-Gyeong (CA) Alessio Zonno
  Based on Glitch Productions' global animation phenomenon created by Liam Vickers and now streaming on Prime Video, it's three cheers for 'destroy all humans' as all-star creators Wyatt Kennedy (Nights, Marvel Voices) and Jo Mi-Gyeong (Eve, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance) unleash the record-setting comics adaptation of the series that you have watched 330 million times: MURDER DRONES! In the far future on the desolate exoplanet designated Copper 9, the humans are long gone but the robotic worker drones they created to mine the planet's resources are still hard at work. Together, they have managed to forge their own makeshift society . . . or so they thought until a previously unknown kind of robot—the dreaded 'Murder Drones'—are activated by a long-forgotten human-scripted protocol to disassemble any worker that deviates from its original programming. But when a rebellious young worker drone named Uzi forms an unlikely alliance with two disassembly drones—Serial Designations N and V—can they, together, uncover the secrets of their origins . . . and stop the spread of the unsettling mechanical virus known as the Absolute Solver? Robots, violence, teen angst, mad science, love, loss, doors, hormones, and chaos! What more could you ask for? A pen, perhaps? It's a clicky pen! (Ask your kids. They'll get it!) $4.99 2/25/2026

  ROBOTS! REBELLION! AND THIS SICK-AS-HELL RAILGUN! From Glitch Productions and Oni Press, the record-shattering adaptation of the groundbreaking animated series from writer Wyatt Kennedy (Nights, Wiccan: Witches' Road) and Jo Mi-Gyeong (Eve) continues! Following the annihilation of the human colonists once tasked with gutting its resources in order to maximize shareholder value, the remote exoplanet of Copper 9 stands in ruin. But, beneath the surface, the colonists' robotic worker drones have built a new kind of life for themselves with purpose, schools, doors, and card games! Now, teenage drone Uzi has made an unlikely bestie in Disassembly Drone N, whose primary purpose, until very recently, was to destroy the worker drones (for reasons). But it's not just prom dates and awkward silences for these two wacky kids. A mysterious force continues to stalk the drone population from within, leaving a bloody trail of bodies in its wake. It's a real drag! $4.99 4/1/2026
