Investigators Detective Delphi and Detective Swon have found themselves at the center of a surprising mystery: Someone is killing Mind Management agents. Is it one of their own? The trail of bodies will take them to Phoenix, Arizona, where Swon begins to question his own origin story and whether the organization he works for can be trusted . . . As Swon’s visions grow more chaotic and his questions more difficult to answer, Delphi must balance the needs of the heart with those of her embattled employer.

MIND MGMT: NEW & IMPROVED #2 will arrive in comic shops with mind-expanding covers from Kindt as well as Jasper Jubenvill (Dynamite Diva), Jenna Cha (The Sickness), and Patricia Martín (EC’s Blood Type) — on sale July 2026!
