Grendizer Sequel Headlines Titan Comics' Big Manga Push for September 2026

Hold onto your Pilder! Titan Comics is dropping a bombshell this September 2026, confirming the long-awaited sequel to the legendary Mazinger mecha franchise, Grendizer. Duke Fleed returns to pilot the mighty robot against a new threat, the HYDRAGON, after years of peace. This isn't just a comic; it's a direct continuation of a seminal anime that helped define super robot cool for generations. Mecha fans, this is the news you've been waiting for.
But Titan's September lineup isn't just about classic mecha. They're making a strong play in the manga space, with some heavy hitters and intriguing new series. The utterly iconic Five Star Stories, Mamoru Nagano's sprawling sci-fi epic, gets a new manga release. This series is a masterclass in world-building and design, a must-read for any serious fan. We're also seeing the arrival of Ao Ashi, the beloved soccer manga, which continues its run, letting fans follow Ashito Aoi's journey from rookie to pro. And for horror game enthusiasts, a new Resident Evil manga plunges fan-favorites Chris Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy, and Jill Valentine into a bioterror nightmare on Alcatraz.
Beyond the big names, Titan is serving up a smorgasbord of original manga, including several Isekai titles. Expect transmigration tales like a surgeon reborn as an assassin, an ordinary student becoming a hero, and the arrogant Roy Aveillam mastering magic in another world. Plus, a new Vampire Survivors comic is hitting shelves, capitalizing on the indie game's explosive popularity. Diablo IV fans also get a tie-in story, Dawn of Hatred, expanding the game's lore.
