ARCADIA VOLUME 1 TPB
Written by Inaki Miranda
Illustrated by Roy Miranda
Colors by Eva de la Cruz
Cover by Inaki Miranda
 
Humanity is gone. What is left is so much more.
 
The Eisner Award-nominated Miranda Brothers unveil their most ambitious post apocalyptic, sci-fi epic to date!
 
In a future where humanity has vanished, a new form of life rises from the ruins: the Serants, artificial beings born from mysterious technological chrysalises known as Superdragons. Each one carries a Pearl, a biotechnological core that holds their consciousness, their memories…their soul.
 
Halu is a Serant born late, emerging from a forgotten silo. He is rescued from destruction by Weedy, an eccentric scavenger obsessed with the remnants of the past and the search for meaning in their own existence. Soon after, Halu meets Fix, a practical, strong, and luminous young mechanic who awakens something deep within him. Together, in a world of ruins and dangers, they search for meaning, connection, and a reason to endure.
 
Arcadia is a work of existential science fiction–profoundly human, where memory and love endure as a precious mystery that refuses to fade. A story that explores what makes us human…when humanity is no longer there to tell us the answer.
 
The first chapter of the most ambitious sci-fi duology to date from the Eisner Award-nominated creative duo, The Miranda Brothers (We Live and Blade Forger).
 

THE BEAUTY: NEW STRAINS VOLUME 1 TPB
Written by Jeremy Haun, Jason A. Hurley
Illustrated by Emanuela Lupacchino
Colors by Leonardo Paciarotti
Cover by Jeremy Haun
 
The inspiration for Ryan Murphy’s hit series, now streaming on FX & Hulu, returns with all-new stories in the world where perfection is one romantic encounter away… for a price.
 
Set in a world not unlike our own, The Beauty chronicles what happens when a new sexually transmitted disease begins to spread. Only, this is a disease that people actually want, as those who contract it are literally changed into more beautiful versions of themselves. The only hitch is a slight fever and, eventually, death. But isn’t that an easy price to pay to be gorgeous?
 
This new series follows several characters as they deal with the Beauty and how it has changed society around them. A thief for hire on a dangerous job, a meteorologist with plummeting ratings, and special agents specializing in Beauty-related crimes will all find their lives converging in unexpected ways.
 
The Beauty creators Jeremy Haun (Murder Podcast, The Red Mother) and Jason A. Hurley (The Approach) with red hot artist Emanuela Lupacchino (Wonder Woman, Birds of Prey) unveil the newest chapter in the transformational impact of a disease that is far more than skin deep.
 
This volume collects The Beauty (2025) #1-5.

Will their ancient mortal enemy’s return reunite the fractured Savage family or doom the earth in this Mitchells vs the Machines meets Vox Machina saga?
 
Jordan Savage is a normal 16-year-old kid barely holding it together after his parents’ recent divorce. His twin sister Winter is his opposite in every way—including how she is coping with the changes in the Savage family’s lives.
 
And those changes are bigger than they could even imagine. They are about to find out that the boring, bickering parents they’ve lived with this whole time are secretly ancient death-dealing barbarian warriors. They have been living quietly for 3000 years, having defeated their nemesis—the evil sorcerer warlord Farklar the Fleshless—leaving the world safe for humanity.
 
Only now, Farklar has returned, and his army of hideous Mordorks are about to devour Des Moines. Now the Savages are piled in Mom’s minivan headed for Iowa to wage war against Black Magic Armageddon. Jordan is freaking out, Winter thinks it’s all pretty cool, and no one is sure if Mom and Dad can get along long enough to save civilization from destruction.
 
Just Brutal is an action-packed thrill ride that stacks the trauma of family against the challenge of saving the world. Written by Dennis Hopeless (Heart Eyes, Spider-Woman) with art by Brahm Revel (Guerillas; TMNT: Jennika) and colorist Marissa Louise (Mr. Terrific).
