Super Mondo Mega Mutts #1 Preview: Oni Press Unleashes the Wildest Action Comic of the Summer
A messed-up world needs heroes who are willing to bite back.
Super Mondo Mega Mutts #1 from Oni Press is ready to crash into comic shops on July 15, 2026, and this one looks absolutely unhinged in the best way possible. From co-creators Curt Pires and Juan Gedeon, this four-issue series introduces a new team of anthropomorphic anti-heroes built for readers who want loud action, mutant mayhem, wild comedy, and a whole lot of bite.
The pitch alone is enough to grab attention: it is like The Boys adopted the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, chewed up your copy of WE3, and then sprinted straight into a red band trailer full of chaos.

Super Mondo Mega Mutts #1 Brings Fur, Fury, and First Appearances
Super Mondo Mega Mutts #1 kicks off with a double-sized, 40-page debut packed with first appearances, red band energy, and a new team that looks ready to tear through summer comics.
The story begins one year after a fragment of an interdimensional civilization crashes into Downtown Los Angeles, creating an impossible zone where the laws of physics no longer apply. This no-man’s-land becomes known as The Gleam, and it immediately attracts the worst kind of attention.
Government contractors want the technology inside.
Gangs want power.
Federal forces want control.
Humanity wants answers.
Instead of sending people into the zone, the government sends four research animals.
That was the mistake.
What comes back is not a weapon.
What comes back is Wolf, Frankee, Griffy, and Freddy — four radically transformed dogs with minds, bodies, grudges, and a mission of their own.
Meet the Super Mondo Mega Mutts
The preview pages make it clear that this team is not here to sit, stay, or roll over.
Wolf is the lover boy of the group, a Morkie with attitude and a serious appetite for cheese.
Frankee is the demolitions expert, a Chiweenie with explosive energy and no patience for staying quiet.
Freddy is the cyber-ronin, a true blue heeler with a blade, a mission, and a taste for garlic bread.
Griffy is the heavy hitter, a blue heeler mix with reactive power and the kind of strength that makes bad guys regret every decision.
Together with their brilliant mentor Mojo, the Mutts are stepping into a Los Angeles overrun by corrupted power, alien tech, violent gangs, and federal forces that are way out of control.
They were supposed to be test subjects.
Now they are the resistance.
Curt Pires and Juan Gedeon Go Fully Off-Leash
Writer Curt Pires has been on a serious run with books like Lost Fantasy and Fireborn, and Super Mondo Mega Mutts looks like another high-concept swing with huge personality.
This series has the kind of premise that sounds ridiculous until you see the pages.
Then it clicks.
The Santa Monica Pier sequence immediately throws readers into a hostage situation with masked criminals, weird tech, and a gang that thinks it owns the streets. The tone is violent, funny, and fast. It has attitude without slowing down to explain itself too much.
That is important for a book like this.
Super Mondo Mega Mutts #1 needs to feel like it has been kicked through a wall, and the preview delivers exactly that.
Artist Juan Gedeon brings the energy the concept needs. His action is loose, expressive, and explosive. The characters look cartoonish enough to be fun but dangerous enough to sell the violence. When the Mutts start moving, the pages feel like Saturday morning cartoons smashed into an adult action movie.
That combination is the hook.
A New Team Built for New Fans
One of the best things about Super Mondo Mega Mutts #1 is that it looks extremely new-reader friendly.
This is a first issue.
It is a new team.
It is a new world.
It is loaded with first appearances.
That makes it an easy pickup for readers who want to get in on the ground floor.
You do not need to know decades of continuity. You do not need to read ten tie-ins. You just need to show up ready for mutant dogs, alien tech, corrupt forces, over-the-top violence, and a world that has gone completely off the rails.
That makes this a strong pull-list addition for readers who like:
Anthropomorphic action comics.
Weird superhero teams.
Creator-owned chaos.
Mutant animal stories.
Sci-fi action.
Dark comedy.
Big first issues.
Comics that feel like they should not exist but absolutely need to.
Why Collectors Should Watch Super Mondo Mega Mutts #1
Collectors should have Super Mondo Mega Mutts #1 on the radar because this debut is stacked with first-issue appeal.
It is issue #1 of a new four-part series.
It introduces a brand-new team.
It launches with a 40-page oversized debut.
It features multiple covers.
It comes from a creative team with growing heat.
It has a red band trailer push from Oni Press.
Most importantly, it has the kind of wild premise that could build a cult following quickly.
Books like this can become sleeper hits because they are instantly recognizable. The title, the designs, the characters, and the attitude all stand out. The Mutts are not generic. They have a clear visual identity and a concept that can be explained in one sentence.
That matters on comic shop shelves.

Why New Readers Should Pick Up Super Mondo Mega Mutts #1
New readers should pick up Super Mondo Mega Mutts #1 because it looks like one of the most energetic new launches of the summer.
This is the kind of comic that does not ask politely for your attention. It kicks the door open, tracks mud across the floor, steals your snacks, and then fights a gang in the street.
That is the appeal.
It has a simple hook, a big attitude, and a new team that feels built for fans who miss wild, toyetic, cartoon-inspired action comics but want something louder, sharper, and more chaotic.
This is not a quiet book.
This is not a slow-burn drama.
This is mutant dog warfare in a broken Los Angeles full of alien tech, bad decisions, and heroes who were never meant to be heroes.
That makes it a great first issue for new fans.
