MAD CAVE TO PUBLISH GRAPHIC NOVEL BY GREAT BRITISH BAKE-OFF FINALIST KIM-JOY
Creators of ‘Turtle Bread’ Return with New Title
Posted by Brigid Alverson on July 14, 2026 @ 8:36 am CT
Mad Cave Studios will publish the second graphic novel by celebrity chef Kim-Joy, who was a finalist in the Great British Bake Off, and artist Alti, the creators of Turtle Bread. The new YA graphic novel, Quiet, has a sci-fi twist: Mary, who has anxiety and selective mutism, never speaks at school. When she is assigned a mental health robot to help her stand up for herself, what starts as assertiveness turns into pranks on her bullies and then gets even darker, leaving Mary to wonder if she has crossed a line from victim to bully. The comic will be published digitally on ComiXology Originals in Fall 2026 and then in print by Mad Cave in Summer 2027; Kim-Joy will be doing a signing at the Mad Cave booth at SDCC on July 25.
ICv2 columnist Rob Salkowitz wrote about Kim-Joy’s success as a comics creator (see “Comic Industry Forecasts for 2026”), and Skybound has created a game about her (see “Cook Up a Storm”)
