The New York Public Library has released its list of the best new comics for adults for 2026. The list is organized by a slew of different categories that include everything from Activism & Social Justice to Biography & Memoir, Manga, Fantasy, and beyond. It’s such a great, varied list to go through and to pick from to add to your to-be-read list when you have a chance.

Speaking of that list, at least one of the 50 comics in the list is out this month. It’s a darkly funny look at real life in New Zealand with a stunning color palette. In addition to that, this month’s best new comics include a cozy Ghibli-esque story, an iconic Swamp Thing mashup, sassy cats, Bollywood body horror, and more.
