The Roots of Horror Run Deep in Blue Palo Verde

There’s a bad seed taking root in Eden… 

Mad Cave Studios has announced Blue Palo Verde, a gripping folk-horror miniseries from Eisner-nominated writer Ray Fawkes and Indonesian comic artist and illustrator Rimanti, with colors by GS20 Studio’s Rifan Kartakusumah, with famed letterer Frank Cvetkovic!

With an atmosphere thick with suspense and haunting imagery—from the golden petals of the Palo Verde flowers to the eerie presence of a goddess whose love binds the town together—Blue Palo Verde asks: What if people truly figured out how to bring paradise to Earth, and you were the one destined to destroy it?

On her first day out of jail, Kristine Woods discovers that her father has disappeared into a mysterious isolated town hidden in the New Mexico desert. Now it’s up to her to find him and rescue him from a bizarre and unnatural threat. An atmospheric folk-horror story of dread and redemption set in the American Southwest, starting in June 2025!

Remember, nothing you do is without consequence. Blending the psychological terror of Midsommar with the gripping dread of The Wicker Man, Blue Palo Verde takes readers on a mind-bending journey into the heart of horror, family bonds, and the cost of salvation.

Blue Palo Verde #1 arrives in comic shops on June 11, featuring Cover A by Rimanti and Cover B by Marguerite Sauvage, and is now available for preorder!

Welcome to Altered States — Dynamite Entertainment’s parallel reality in the vein of DC’s Elseworlds and Marvel’s What If?!

In the summer of 1976, Tori Sachs and her friends went to an innocent beach party to celebrate the end of high school… and wandered into a scene of satanic carnage that would shock the world!

Now, decades later, the truth can at last be told, and the burning questions answered: Why were the teens targeted for slaughter that night? And what unholy creature did they fall victim to?

Written by master of the macabre RAY FAWKES (Constantine, Justice League Dark) and illustrated by veteran Purgatori whisperer FEDERICO SORRESSA, Altered States: Purgatori Grindhouse returns readers to the golden age of slasher entertainment — complete with sinfully era-appropriate covers from JOSEPH MICHAEL LINSNER, LUCIO PARRILLO, MIKE ROOTH, and cosplay by RACHEL HOLLON!
