Da' Lineup

"Da' Lineup", the first ever official Bodeverse drop. The main cast, all together.
Available August 12th, 6am EST, for two weeks only. Then never again.

The work of Vaughn and Mark Bode has shaped underground culture since Vaughn first self-published Das Kämpf in 1963. His characters ran through underground comics, graffiti and counter culture, and they're still surfacing today. Mark has carried and grown these worlds ever since, adding his own characters and depth to the outline his father left him.

Our goal with Da' Bodeverse is to give the work of Mark and his father a new platform and a way to reach new audiences, to help spread the wisdom of the hat to new generations. Mark drew this lineup in June of 2026 as the perfect introduction to the Bodeverse, the main cast in one place.

This illustration is actually one of four that encompass every story, every universe and every character in the Bodeverse, and will be featured at Saatchi Gallery in November 2028 as part of Beyond the Streets. It is the Lineup, and it's the first drop of the Bodeverse, the first release in what we hope will be a great series, for the old school Bode fans and the new ones who discovering it for the first time.

Launching August 12th, 6am EST, it'll be up for two weeks and two weeks only.

This is the first one, and for that reason it's special to us, and hopefully to you.

Thanks, and keep watching the site. Mark has a lot of projects planned, and they're great.
