Cartoon Network’s 92% RT Masterpiece Officially Returns in One Month With New Series

For many of us, Cartoon Network defined our childhoods with unforgettable shows like The Powerpuff Girls, Dexter’s Laboratory, Courage the Cowardly Dog, and Ben 10. Now, one of these beloved franchises is coming back – but you won’t be able to watch it on television.

As a big Ben 10 fan, I’m really excited to hear that a new comic series is kicking things off on May 6, 2026! It’s basically a reboot, giving a fresh spin to the show so many of us grew up with. The best part? The original creators, Man of Action Studios, are working with Dynamite Entertainment to make sure it still feels like Ben 10 – same characters, same universe, just a new story. It’s awesome to know they’re staying true to what made the series so great in the first place.

Joe Casey will be the lead writer, joined by artist Robert Carey and Man of Action members Duncan Rouleau, Dustin Nguyen, and Sebastian Piriz. Starting the story from the beginning makes this series great for both new viewers and long-time fans of the original Ben 10.

For those already familiar with the show and newcomers alike, Ben 10 follows 10-year-old Ben Tennyson. When a strange meteor lands on Earth, Ben finds the Omnitrix—a powerful, high-tech device that looks like a wristwatch. It lets him transform into amazing aliens from different planets.

This new series isn’t just a comic book version of the original Ben 10; it’s a fresh and updated take on the beloved story. Considering the original premiered in 2005, it’s been over two decades, and this series is designed to bring the iconic adventure to a new generation.

Future plans for the series reveal that Ben Tennyson will be a fugitive, pursued by the U.S. Army because of his Omnitrix. The show will also feature the return of beloved characters like Ben’s grandfather, Max Tennyson, and his cousin, Gwen Tennyson. While Kevin Levin hasn’t been mentioned yet, longtime fans are hoping he’ll appear in the series.

Young Ben Tennyson has a powerful, alien device called the Omnitrix, which lets him transform into different creatures. But this newfound ability has made him a target – he’s now being chased by the U.S. army! As Ben figures out how the Omnitrix works, he’s getting help – and complicated by – his grandfather, Max, who has secrets of his own, and his adventurous cousin, Gwen.

The new Ben 10 comic book from Dynamite Entertainment, created by Ben 10 co-creator Joe Casey and artist Robert Carey, is full of excitement, suspense, and incredible action!
