Racer X #5

The mysterious Racer X commands the cover of this fifth issue from Mad Cave Studios' Speed Racer spinoff series, rendered in rich, painterly detail by cover artist Francesco Tomaselli — the helmeted, goggle-wearing driver stands arms-crossed beside a gleaming yellow sports car in what appears to be a garage bay, radiating cool, guarded confidence. The orange-and-black logo pops against the moody atmosphere, perfectly capturing the character's signature blend of enigma and style. With Mark Russell writing and Nuno Plati on interior art and inks, this 2026 series continues to bring fresh energy to one of animation's most enduring racing worlds.
