Smallville’s Kristin Kreuk’s Black Star Debuts in July

Titan Comics has announced Black Star, which comes to shops July 29, 2026. Black Star is the debut comic series by actress Kristin Kreuk. Co-written with Peter Mooney and screenwriter Eric Putzer, and illustrated by artist Joe Bocardo, this five-issue series is a Northern Gothic noir steeped in horror and dark humour.

Amidst skirmishes between two warring factions in the early nineteenth-century fur trade, Dashiell Carlyle discovers he has magical abilities… and that he’s not alone. Thrust into a secret order with designs to use their magic to build a new and better world, Dashiell discovers that their utopia may come at a horrific cost.

It’s a violent world: gritty, bloody, and dark. But that’s balanced with a sense of discovery and awe. The storytelling’s propulsive, and the morality grey. It’s The Revenant meets Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1. It’s a love letter to a frozen corner of the world that few know. It’s weird. And wonderful. And something wholly its own.

Titan’s Black Star comics is set to launch the first issue in stores and on digital devices July 29, 2026. Look out for more information very soon!
