Fans of the beloved Eric Kripke show Supernatural just got an exciting update. The Winchester brothers Dean and Sam, portrayed by Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki respectively in the TV series, will be teaming up again with Castiel, played by Misha Collins, for a new story. It has been confirmed that the trio will reunite in Supernatural Special: Castiel #1 from Dynamite Entertainment.
This exciting new development officially launches the character Castiel into the world of comics. Supernatural Special: Castiel #1 has been written by Preeti Chhibber and illustrated by Pasquale Qualano. The new comic will see Dean and Sam embark on their next big monster hunt, as reported by CBR.com.
Comic Synopsis
A synopsis for the comic reads: 'Fan-favorite Supernatural character Castiel makes his comics debut! Castiel has always been sure. Of his faith. Of his duty. Of his position. Always. So why is he suddenly having doubts? The only thing he knows is that it has something to do with the Winchesters.'
'He's followed them to Gainesville, FL, on a chaotic weekend when music and sports fans have descended on the city. And wherever Castiel goes, the Winchesters are one step ahead of him, hunting for the monsters that have been reported in the vicinity.'
'Whether it’s at a concert, a frat party, or wherever — by the time Castiel follows the trail there, the Winchesters have come and gone. Until they find the thing they're all looking for… together. But will Castiel help the brothers in their mission, or just get in the way?'
Continuation of a Legacy
The update is a welcome one for fans of The CW show, which dominated the small screen for 15 years between 2005 and 2020. This comic is just the latest in a long line of titles from Dynamite Entertainment, which has published many within the last year.
The company started publishing its Supernatural comics from 2025, filling the void for Supernatural fans. DC Comics also previously published Supernatural comics back in 2012. Although Supernatural might have wrapped up onscreen, the story is still going strong in the comics.
Supernatural is streaming on Prime Video now.
