2026-04-01 – GASTON #2 hits comic shops today – and yes, GASTON IS A SQUIRREL!

Page from Gaston #2 showing LeFou running towards us with a squirrel (Gaston!) on his shoulder, chased by various angry woodland animals.

GASTON: Faster, Le Fou! Faster! These woodland creatures all seem intent on your destruction for some reason!

LE FOU: >huff< all due >hack< respect >wheeze< Gaston, I thin >koff< it's you they're after >gasp!<

Friends, I am thrilled to announce that GASTON #2 hits stores today, written by yours truly and Fred Van Lente with art by Milena Ciccarello, letters by Jeff Eckleberry, and editing by Nate Cosby!

And yes, Gaston has been transformed into a squirrel!

You obviously need this book. Please ask your local comic shop to hold a copy for you today — and check out a lettered preview here!

GASTON #1 hits comic shops this March from Pak, Van Lente, and Ciccarello!

Gaston #1 cover by Milena Ciccarello showing Gaston and LeFou walking through the dark woods. The design features a big reverse silhouette of Gaston forming a frame around the characters.

The horse is out of the bag! Fred Van Lente and I are writing a new GASTON comic book series, drawn by the brilliant Milena Ciccarello! It’s gonna be GREAT, almost certainly the GREATEST COMIC BOOK EVER CREATED!

Please do preorder with your local comic store!

If you liked what Fred and I did with INCREDIBLE HERCULES back in the day, you’re gonna love GASTON. If you dug what we did with Sabretooth in WEAPON X, you’re gonna love GASTON.

Gotta love the big, burly buffoons!
