FOC 03-23-2026 Pre-Order Roundup — Omnibuses, Absolutes & New Translations

The 3/23/26 FOC leans heavily into collected editions, with a strong mix of omnibuses, curated trades, and a few notable first-time English releases. It’s a good week for readers building out long runs or collectors looking for shelf-worthy editions.

One of the headline releases is Absolute Flash Vol. 2: Still Point, continuing the DC Absolute Universe storyline centered on Wally West as time fractures and the forces of speed collide. DC also adds several substantial collections this week, including Justice League of America: The Bronze Age Omnibus Vol. 1 (New Edition), Supergirl: The New 52 Omnibus Vol. 2, and The Swamp Thing by Ram V and Mike Perkins Omnibus, which gathers one of the most acclaimed modern runs on the character.

Outside the superhero lane, a few releases stand out immediately. Moebius Library: The Depressed Hunter finally arrives in English, making it a notable pickup for art-book collectors and longtime Moebius fans. Dark Horse also expands its creator-driven lineup with The Magic Order Omnibus Vol. 1, Madman Omnibus Vol. 3, and Creepy Presents: Steve Ditko.

Marvel’s side of the list features a mix of classic and modern Spider-Man material, including Amazing Spider-Man Epic Collection: Nothing Can Stop the Juggernaut, Spider-Man Noir: The Gwen Stacy Affair, and Spider-Man: Brand New Day, alongside the continuing Ultimate line with Ultimate Black Panther Vol. 4. Mutant readers also get a major hardcover with X-Men: Age of Krakoa – Reign of X Omnibus Vol. 1, collecting a large stretch of the Krakoa-era storyline.

There’s also some variety outside the usual superhero space with American Caper Vol. 1, the reflective manga The Credits Roll into the Sea, the latest Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service omnibus, and accessible licensed titles like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Booyakasha Books Vol. 1 and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Megazords & Monsters.

Release windows for these books stretch from spring into early fall, so this FOC is really about locking in the editions you care about. Omnibuses and specialty collections in particular tend to move quickly once initial printings land.

Short version: if a specific hardcover or collection is on your radar, this is a good week to get those pre-orders in.
