Did you hear about Did You Hear About Mimi Green? The new Dark Horse Comics series comes from neophyte writer Connor Goldsmith, alongside artist Josh Cornillon, and letterer Ariana Maher, and is an unambitious debut for Goldsmith… All it tackles is “the wellness industry, ‘cancel culture’, body dysmorphia, and the complex power dynamics of show business.” Try harder next time, Goldsmith!
“Developing my first comic with Josh has been a joy, and Ariana’s lettering has pushed his gorgeous art even further,” said Goldsmith via press release. “Did You Hear About Mimi Green? is a very personal story, and I’m so grateful Dark Horse understands what I’m trying to accomplish with this book. I am so proud of what we’ve made, and so excited we can finally talk about it!”
Added Cornillon, “Working on this story, from its first early germination years ago, to the full-fledged surreal dream that it has become, has been an absolute pleasure, and the chance to build this world from the ground up with Connor has been one of the most creatively fulfilling experiences I’ve had in my career. I’m so excited that everyone who has had the chance to influence the book, from our brilliant editors, our stunning letterer Ariana, my color assistant Alex Buckland, and our community of supporters, has been able to understand our freaky and twisted vision for this world. I can’t wait for readers to meet Mimi, I hope she survives the experience!”
Did You Hear About Mimi Green? #1 hits stores on May 27, 2026. Check out the synopsis and covers, below.
Tastemaker Mimi Green is a popular essayist with a perfectly curated social media presence—until a blog post she wrote a decade ago, cruelly mocking fat people, resurfaces and sparks a viral furor. Mimi checks into an isolated mental health facility in Topanga to ride out the scandal, but as sound baths and crystal healings by day give way to restless nights, she’s pulled into another version of the building. There, the halls are old and gluttonous and gilded, and the vainglorious like Mimi and her fellow patients are punished again and again. Only local bartender Natalie, the lesbian lover Mimi hid from the public, stands a chance of tracking her down before it’s too late.
