Next week is the 19th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers Image Comics May 7 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering Image Comics April 30 2025 new releases.

This week in Image Comics: Kirkman’s Blood & Thunder debuts, a new arc for Kaya, a final arc for Farmhand, the Moon is nearly done following us, recollected Invincible, Snake-Eyes goes undercover, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: Since I’m not caught up on Kaya (2022) I can’t pick the start of it’s new arc! Failing that, I think I have to go with Blood & Thunder (2025) #1, which sounds like a sci-fi take on Fairlady (2019) – on of my favorite Image books of the past decade.

This post includes every comic out from Image Comics this week on May 7 2025, plus collected editions. This isn’t the typical comic releases post you can find on other sites. Why? I explain each collection and comment on every series with a new issue out this week to help you figure out if they’re for you.

Plus, for some long-running series and Image Comics imprints, I’ll point you to a personally-curated guide within the Crushing Comics Guide to Indie Comics to find out how to collect that title in full!

There’s no other website on the internet that can claim that.

And now, onto Image Comics May 7 2025 new releases!

Next week is the 10th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers Image Comics March 5 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering Image Comics February 26 2025 new releases.

This week in Image Comics: Horror on Hyde Street, the complete Hellspawn, penultimate Juvenile, Moon Man’s lost seven minutes, Redcoat collected, another batch of Monkey Money, Strange Girl’s anniversary, hardcover Fishflies and Savage Dragon, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: This is a sparse week of Image for me – it’s full of books I don’t read or strongly dislike! I guess that means it might be a chance to play catchup, in which case my pick would be The Tin Can Society (2024) #6. The quality of non-Remender books from Rick Remender’s Giant Generator imprint have been surprisingly high, so this indie Iron man riff might be up my alley (and it’ll certainly be better than the current Iron Man (2024) run at Marvel!) But, I’m also eager to catch up on the collected edition of Convert (2024)! More on that, below.

New Comics & Collected Editions Releases: Image Comics – January 1 2025

What’s this? An Image Comics new releases post?! Indeed – we’re going to give this a try for a few weeks and see how it goes. Do you care? Do I? Let’s find out with my first ever Image Comics releases post, covering Image Comics January 1 2025 releases.

This week in Image Comics: The Massive-Verses’s multiversal saga, Samurai vs. Dragons, the penultimate issue of Saga Season 2, Walking Dead kicks off “What Comes After” in color, and more!

I have barely read any Image series in the past two years, so these posts will give me a chance to re-orient myself to what Image has been up to while I’ve been focused almost-entirely on catching up on Marvel.

I’ll say that this post in particular covers an entire slate of books I don’t particularly enjoy, but I sure do know a lot about them! I’ll try not to go too negative. I’m more excited for future weeks that include more new series rather than this line-up of mostly venerable entries.

The Krisis Pick of the Week: Saga (2012) #71! It’s a big deal that Season 2 is wrapping up later this month, and it makes a great time to binge on what you’ve missed.

Image Comics January 1 2025 Collected Editions

Note: Image Comics collections hit the direct market 2-3 weeks prior to when they ship to the book market, so if you order these books today from a traditional bookseller they will still be pre-orders.

Invincible Vol. 7 [New Edition]
(2025 paperback, ISBN 978-1534375062)
This new line of slim paperback editions of Invincible (2003) have now fully departed from the mapping of the originals. The original Vol. 7 collected Invincible (2003) #31-35 and this new edition collects Invincible (2003) #35-41.

That means they’re slightly more efficient at collecting the series than the original paperbacks, but there are so many collection options for Invincible that these still are one of the least efficient ways to pick it up.

Are there so many options that I need a Guide to Invincible? Sound off in the comments if I should add it to my list of guides for 2025!

Radiant Black Vol. 6: The Catalyst War – Infinite Earths
(2025 paperback, ISBN 978-1534397248 / digital)
The Massive-Verse flagship title has an innovative take on a multiverse story, with this paperback collecting both the A and B versions of Radiant Black (2021)#28-30 (the “B” versions are numbered as “.5” issues) to wrap up “The Catalyst War” storyline.

The B issues come out on the same date as the A issues, are titled the same, and tell the same story in the same time period beginning from the same splash page – but in different realities!

I fell off of this book early on, but I’m impressed that what started out as “loser stumbles into superhero technology” has escalated all the way to multiverse shenanigans in just 30 issues.

Do I need to add a Guide to the Massive-Verse to my collection of indie guides? We all know my weakness for shared universes, so it’s definitely tempting!
