Skybound Entertainment announced the next big arc in the Battle Beast series kicks off in March 2026 by Robert Kirkman and Ryan Ottley.
Perfect for longtime fans and new readers alike, Invincible Universe: Battle Beast #7 kicks off a new blood-soaked epic, as Battle Beast now faces the two most dangerous enemies of his lifetime…and did we mention that the Viltrum Empire is on the way?
“Between season 4 of the show and the events of this Battle Beast series, 2026 is all about the Viltrumites!” exclaimed Robert Kirkman in a press release from Skybound Entertainment. “It’s so cool that readers are finally getting an inkling of what this series is actually about. Arc one was really just the taste of the chaos to come as we dive headfirst into how exactly Battle Beast ended up in that Viltrumite prison!”
“Did Thragg say CONQUEST at the end of issue 6?” asked Ryan Ottley in the same press release. “Does that mean… this series will have… Battle Beast fighting Conquest?! Could it be?! Well, that’s just too much excitement to contain in one press release! All that and a Todd McFarlane cover on this issue?! Bless my biscuits!”
Even in a universe of mighty Viltrumites like Invincible and Omni-Man, it seems that no one may be able to stop the galaxy’s deadliest warrior…unless he does the unthinkable. A new story arc begins as Battle Beast continues his quest to find the one being who can defeat him in battle and end his life.
Battle Beast #7 arrives on March 18, 2026.
