The Nacelle Company, Oni Press, and Rebellion are proud to announce a historic partnership. The news arrives in advance of Comic-Con International 2026 in San Diego, CA. This partnership officially begins today with the announcement of JUDGE DREDD / BIKER MICE FROM MARS #1.

Spanning two 40-page, deluxe format issues, JUDGE DREDD / BIKER MICE FROM MARS #1 begins in December 2026. Blockbuster writers Dan Watters (M.A.S.K., Batman: Dark Patterns) and Ryan O'Sullivan (Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War) pen the series. Supercharged artist Jordi Tarragona (Injustice: Gods Among Us) provides the art.

As IGN announced today, JUDGE DREDD / BIKER MICE FROM MARS #1 marks the first milestone in a new partnership. The partnership unites Rebellion and the Nacelle Company for merchandising. Nacelle's Consumer Product division will create a new line of highly detailed action figures and other collectables. The range will feature crossovers between The Biker Mice From Mars and Rebellion's Judge Dredd characters. The first wave of figures becomes available for pre-order this fall, releasing online and in stores in 2027.

To celebrate the new partnership, Nacelle, Oni Press, and Rebellion are giving fans a special reward. The reward comes straight from the streets of Mega-City One. It begins at Comic-Con International 2026 in San Diego, CA, on Thursday, July 23rd! Simply visit the Rebellion booth (#2121) to retrieve your free Mega-City One parking ticket. It comes with an official Department of Justice stamp. Then get it stamped again at the Nacelle Company booth (#2547). Finally, stamp it at the Oni Press booth (#1829) to avoid the death penalty. Fans who complete the trail receive one of 500 limited-edition JUDGE DREDD / BIKER MICE FROM MARS art prints. The prints feature upcoming cover art from Eisner Award-winning superstar David Finch (Batman, Skinbreaker)!

"It's truly a thrill to be walking the streets of Mega-City One with our amazing partners at Rebellion and the Nacelle Company. The amount of love and fervour for Judge Dredd and the iconic legacy of 2000 AD that flows through both Oni and Nacelle is palpable, and, thanks to the huge talents of Dan Watters, Ryan O'Sullivan, and Jordi Tarragona, we're excited to give fans the 22nd century's first truly great comic event," said Oni Press President & Publisher Hunter Gorinson.

"I've been a massive fan of Judge Dredd for at least 35 years and when Hunter suggested this collab, I warned him that he better not be punking me," said Nacelle CEO, Brian Volk-Weiss. "Being able to play in the Mega City One sand box is beyond a dream come true!"

Across the frayed cordons of space-time, the greed-fueled oligarchs Limburger and Karbunkle have identified a strange new world to plunder. They never anticipated that Throttle, Vinnie, and Modo would dare to foil their latest cross-dimensional conquest. The trio are the extraterrestrial anti-heroes known as the BIKER MICE FROM MARS. Their target is the smog-clogged metropolis known as Mega-City One.

Now, the Martian brothers and their bikes are stranded between blocks in Mega-City's endless, chaotic sprawl. They're surrounded by 400 million citizens who want them dead. One man is committed to delivering them to justice at any cost: the unforgiving JUDGE DREDD! The law has no place for vermin on Mega-City One's streets. But when the Biker Mice's otherworldly abilities draw the gaze of the inhuman entity called Judge Death, danger follows. Man and mouse alike will be caught in the crosshairs. This is the first-ever BIKER MICE FROM MARS crossover outside of the NacelleVerse!

"Mutants and mayhem are two of the founding pillars of Judge Dredd's world, so when Oni and Nacelle approached us about a crossover with the Biker Mice From Mars we knew this would be exactly our kind of Thrillpower," said Ben Smith, Head of Publishing for Rebellion. "The Biker Mice From Mars are the perfect fit for Dredd's radical, radioactive vision of the future, and this is going to be a revved-up, all-action spectacular for fans. To take this crossover off the page into a new toy range is next level exciting - Rebellion and 2000 AD are delighted to bring this new partnership with our new partners Oni Press and Nacelle into fifth gear."

Created by John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra, JUDGE DREDD has patrolled Mega-City One's crime-ridden, dystopian streets since his debut. He first appeared in the pages of 2000 AD #1977. Throughout his almost 50 year history, Dredd has faced down everyone from Batman to Aliens and Predator. Yet he's never met anyone quite like Throttle, Vinnie, and Modo. The BIKER MICE FROM MARS are set to appear in a brand-new animated series in 2027. Executive producers include Brian Volk-Weiss, Ryan Reynolds, George Dewey, Matt Kravitsky, and Kevin Hill. They have been a fixture for fans and collectors since their first appearance in 1993. Since then, they've helmed multiple new comic series published by Oni Press.

JUDGE DREDD / BIKER MICE FROM MARS #1 arrives in comic shops worldwide in December 2026. It features covers by David Finch (Batman), Karl Kerschl (The Flash), and Andrew Krahnke (G.I. Joe). More covers are still to be revealed!
