That issue introduced the Absolute version of Oliver Queen, only for this well-meaning but deeply naive hero to be immediately murdered by a corrupted Hawkman. Absolute Green Arrow instead takes a more horror-influenced approach to the franchise, as a mysterious vigilante begins killing off billionaires and protection specialist Dinah Lance (aka Absolute Black Canary) is dispatched to uncover the archer&#8217;s secret identity.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Absolute Green Arrow #1 will be released on May 20, 2026.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">As for Absolute Catwoman, that series is co-written by Che Grayson and Scott Snyder and illustrated by Bengal. The first issue features covers by Bengal, David Nakayama, Sozomaika, Kaare Andrews, and Mateus Manhanini.

But when an enemy from her past comes calling, she&#8217;ll find herself suddenly on the defensive.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Absolute Catwoman #1 will be released on June 10, 2026.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">In addition to these two new books, DC also teased that the first Absolute Universe event comic will debut in Q4 2026.
