The Peril of the Brutal Dark: An Ezra Cain Mystery #3
(W) Chris Condon (A) Jacob Phillips
THE BRUTAL DARK CLOSES IN! Ezra Cain meets face-to-face with the Brutal Dark… but it ain’t on his terms! His snooping around the Clockworkers’ Union has finally put his investigation on the shadowy sect’s radar. But a dash of good fortune comes Ezra’s way when reporter Sandy Williams gets a lead on the Brutal Dark’s agenda. She’s an old flame, though… is working together really in the cards for these two?
In the dying days of the American frontier, survival is earned in blood, and legacy is something far more dangerous. Cloven, the new original series from Mad Cave Studios, pulls readers into a bleak, dust-choked world where inheritance is not a gift, but a reckoning.
Written by comics’ legendary creator Dan Panosian, with art by Italian illustrator David Ferracci, colors by Lee Loughridge, and letters by Pat Brosseau, Cloven brings together a powerhouse creative team, with covers by Panosian, Jacob Phillips, Mark Chiarello, and Travis Charest.
In the dying days of the American frontier, a young woman journeys into the unknown to claim a legacy she never asked for—and may not survive.
June Buckley’s father was a monster in life. In death, he may be something worse.
Summoned alongside a group of treacherous heirs, June is forced to traverse the same brutal path that built her father’s empire. But the trail reveals more than hardship—it exposes the rot in every soul traveling beside her.
And at the center of it all is Hendido…a creature bound to her father’s past, and perhaps to something far older and much more wicked.
As the tension simmers and night closes in, June begins to understand: Her inheritance comes at a grisly price.
Cloven is a slow burn descent into violence, inheritance, and the things we carry whether we want to or not.
Cloven #1 goes on sale July 29, 2026 (FOC July 7).
Mercurial billionaire Tuttle Barrows prepared for everything—even the end of the world. Years ago he wielded his immense power and fortune to build a massive sealed habitat atop a once protected ancient freshwater glacial cave. Now, as the world outside unravels, Barrows, his family, and a handpicked inner circle retreat to their final sanctuary—a place built to outlast civilization itself. But something was already there. Beneath layers of ice, in the ancient freshwater vault, a long-dormant danger lurks. While hallucinations twist their reality and violence spreads like a fever they must descend deeper or risk their last refuge becoming a tomb.
