Characters from ''Dexter's Laboratory'' are featured in a 150,000-print magazine called ''Cartoon Network'', published by Burghley Publishing and released in the United Kingdom on August 27, 1998.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Rushe |first=Dominic |date=August 9, 1998 |title=Cartoon TV Launches Own Comic |work=[[The Sunday Times]] |department=Business |publisher=[[News UK]]}}</ref>

[[DC Comics]] printed four comic book volumes featuring ''Dexter's Laboratory''. Characters from the series first appear in ''Cartoon Network Presents'', a 24-issue volume showcasing Cartoon Network's premiere animated programming, which was produced from 1997 to 1999. In 1999, DC gave ''Dexter's Laboratory'' its own 34-issue comic volume, which ran until 2003. DC's ''Cartoon Cartoons'' comic book, which ran from 2001 to 2004, frequently includes ''Dexter's Laboratory'' stories. This was superseded by ''Cartoon Network Block Party'', which ran from 2004 to 2009.

On February 25, 2013, [[IDW Publishing]] announced a partnership with Cartoon Network to produce comics based on its properties, which included ''Dexter's Laboratory''.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Sunu |first=Steve |date=February 25, 2013 |title=IDW to Publish Cartoon Network Comics |url=https://www.cbr.com/idw-to-publish-cartoon-network-comics/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181113095205/https://www.cbr.com/idw-to-publish-cartoon-network-comics/ |archive-date=November 13, 2018 |access-date=February 26, 2013 |website=[[Comic Book Resources]]}}</ref> Its first issue was released on April 30, 2014.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Sims |first=Chris |date=January 16, 2014 |title=Dexter Meets The Powerpuff Girls, but Only on Derek Charm's Amazing 'Dexter's Laboratory' #1 Cover |url=https://comicsalliance.com/dexters-laboratory-1-idw-variant-cover-derek-charm-powerpuff-girls/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140320061049/http://comicsalliance.com/dexters-laboratory-1-idw-variant-cover-derek-charm-powerpuff-girls/ |archive-date=March 20, 2014 |access-date=March 20, 2014 |website=[[ComicsAlliance]]}}</ref>
