DC has unveiled its plans for NYCC 2026, and the publisher is going bigger this year with an expanded booth, a dedicated cosplay experience, exclusive convention merchandise, creator signings, and a slate of panels designed to tease what's coming next across the DC Universe. The convention runs Oct. 8–11, with DC stationed at Booth No. 4365. And if you thought DC's century-long publishing history was going to be left in the rearview mirror, think again. As part of its ongoing celebration of 100 years of the World's Greatest Super Heroes, DC is turning its attention to the 1950s — an era the publisher describes as one of reinvention and experimentation. That retro theme will carry into the convention floor, where fans can visit a 1950s-inspired Daily Planet newsstand and pick up a free facsimile of the first issue of MAD Magazine, complete with classic ads from DC's archives. There's even a blank Daily Planet back cover designed to become a makeshift autograph canvas. Next door to the main booth, DC will set up a 360-degree cosplay photo installation, giving fans the chance to step into the spotlight as their favorite DC heroes and villains. The publisher is also introducing digital queues for select booth activities, including merchandise exclusives and creator signings — a move designed to make the inevitable convention scrum a little more manageable. DC president, publisher, and chief creative officer Jim Lee will host the "Jim Lee & Friends" panel, promising “surprise” announcements, reveals, special guests, and conversations with comics creators. The panel takes place Oct. 10 at 2 p.m. If the word "surprise" has your comic-book radar already buzzing, you're not alone. DC isn't revealing all of its guests ahead of time, leaving plenty of room for the sort of unexpected appearance or announcement that can dominate the convention conversation. The rest of the weekend will also dig into some of DC's biggest publishing initiatives. The Vertigo + Black Label panel on Thursday will spotlight horror, crime, fantasy, sci-fi, and other stories operating beyond the publisher's core DC Universe. Fans can expect announcements, first looks, and appearances from creators working on those lines. The Absolute Universe gets its own spotlight Friday, with DC promising a look at the creators behind the line and hints about what's ahead for Absolute Batman, Absolute Wonder Woman, and the rest of the Absolute cast. Additionally, DC will also be offering exclusive hardcover editions of Absolute Batman Vol. 1: The Zoo, Absolute Superman Vol. 1: The Last Dust of Krypton, and Absolute Wonder Woman Vol. 1: The Last Amazon, all with connecting art by Mark Spears across their dust jackets. Then on Saturday, DC's Next Level & Beyond panel will explore the publisher's expanding initiative with news, announcements, and exclusive reveals. Among the creators scheduled for booth appearances are Lee, Matt Fraction, Scott Snyder, Nick Dragotta, and other DC talent. Fans can also enter digital queues for signings with the creative teams behind Batman of Two Worlds, Absolute Batman, and Legion of Super-Heroes, among others. DC will also use NYCC to spotlight Mattel’s upcoming DC Collector line, which launches globally Jan. 1, 2027. The publisher will reveal the first Mattel DC Collector item on Thursday, Oct. 8, at noon ET, with preorders opening immediately afterward at MattelCreations.com. For DC fans NYCC 2026 isn't simply a place to pick up some convention swag. It's shaping up as a four-day preview of where the publisher is headed next — with a century of history providing the backdrop and a potentially spoiler-filled future waiting just around the corner.

Yeah, it's really more essential to the Dreadnoks than any vehicle is to any other faction in the Joe mythos.

Are these just rereleases of previous figures? They look very familiar.

That is just cool!

Given that DC is a continual retail and media presence with cultural impact far and away above what MOTU has managed since the mid 80's, I think we're pretty safe in assuming that they're going to be more regular releases even in the collector format than what Masterverse or Chronicles has been. Will it be as pervasive as WWE with their multiple waves of different lines each month? Probably not right out of the gate, but I'd be surprised if we didn't have regular releases lined up - a wave every other month maybe until they can accurately gauge demand, perhaps? It's going to be more pervasive than MOTU, especially given that they've had this extra year to ramp up the collector line. Going to be very interesting to see their launch lineup and what other information the release at the time as to their intentions going forward. The 'global' launch of 1 January is interesting - gives me hope that we might have them down here in NZ at the same time!

Interested in the Page Punchers Batman #1 figure. It looks to have a wired cape but not sure. Only issue here is the chest logo is painted on instead of a separate piece or sculpted in.

Ok, this is a great speculation topic on your YouTube JayC... How different cultures define nice on the coming od DC figures next January! Each episode will revise a definition of nice from the point of view of of culture!️

The new McFarlane Toys DC Page Punchers 7" Batman figure based on the included Batman #1 and Nightwing based on the included Nightwing #81 comic will go up for pre-order tomorrow (9/18) at 12pm ET. They will be available at places like our sponsors: • BigBadToyStore • Entertainment Earth • Nerdzoic • Amazon Also based on what we have seen released overseas it looks like we can expect two Red Platinum versions of Robin to be released in this wave. A classic Robin and modern one. Those might go up at Gamestop but no specific details have been released on those at this time.

Like I say i think you are wrong. Maybe 4 Ultimate style type figures a qrt, but gonna be more than that for the overall "DC Collector" line stuff.

Mattel released 19 Masterverse figures in 2025. They released 55 Origins figures. Not counting two packs, I think they've released like six Chronicles so far, with a few more available to be preordered. Maybe they will release more DC collector figures. Maybe it will be like wrestling. I'd be happy to be wrong.

All that being said, I don't expect to see as many DC pre-orders from Mattel as we got from McFarlane which has almost a weekly thing, at least for the past several years.

IDK where you got this info either but from what I've heard that 4 a quarter isn't correct. All these action figure lines Mattel is doing is gonna follow a very similar pattern to how they release WWE figures. WWE has Basic, Elite and Ultimate, all pretty much the same scale with the lower end and cheapest basic figures having the least amount of articulation and accessories, then you step up to Elite with better articulation and a few accessories and finally Ultimate with more accessories and such. Right now for DC we have seen the basic figures released and soon we will see something to the equivalent of Elite figures which will probably be the equivalent to Marvel Legends, at least a regular Marvel Legends. I assume eventually we will also see something equivalent to Ultimate figures which might be more like a Maximum Marvel Legends. IDK how many Elite WWE figures they release in a year but its more than 4 a qrt and I expect the DC Collector line will follow a similar pattern. As for the first figure, I doubt anyone outside of Mattel knows for sure but certainly some kind of Batman is safe bet. If not Batman then likely Superman.

We'll see. I expect them to churn out non-collector figures like there's no tomorrow. Just like they do with Origins and Core.

I'm a little surprised that some of these are still available, to be honest.

With all due respect to MOTU, I think DC license has way more sales potential and way more character variety, I would expect at least half of Marvel Legends output, 4 figure wave per quarter seems like squandering collectors license they fought so hard to get back, so unlike MOTU that they own there's incentive to get the most out of DC collectors license.
