Street Sharks: Jawsome Justice

The first Street Sharks comic in more than 20 years brings you extreme stories and a fintastic time! But don’t call it a comeback—they’ve been waiting for everyone else to get ready for more jawsome adventures!

The four Bolton Brothers were happy playing sports and meeting babes. But when a run-in with a mad scientist turned them into giant sharks…they only got cooler!

Kick some serious fin with Ripster, the great white head of the pack; Streex, the rollerblading ladies’ man (er, ladies’ shark); Jab, the hammerhead who loooves using his noggin; and Big Slammu, the whale shark with the whale-sized muscles, on their newest adventure! They’ll need all the help they can get to stop their archnemesis, Dr. Paradigm, from developing…the perfect predator! Little do they know, it’s already too late to stop the grossest monster they’ve ever fought from being born!

Stephanie Williams (Nubia and the Amazons, My Little Pony) and Ariel Medel (TMNT vs. Street Fighter) bring you the most righteous shark tale you’ve ever read! Collects Street Sharks #1–5 and the Street Sharks 2026 Annual.
