Four years after publishing their Eisner-nominated hit We Live, the Miranda Brothers once again combine forces for Blade Forger, only from Mad Cave Studios! 

Co-created and written by the team that brought readers We Live, Roy Miranda and Inaki Miranda, features art and Cover A by Inaki Miranda, colors by Eva De La Cruz and letters by Dave Sharpe—the series that begs the question, What happens when utopia is born from necessity—can one person change the world?

The discovery of CORUM, a never-before-seen energy source, led to a bloody world war for its control. These wars, and the devastation they caused, would lead to the BLADE FORGERS TREATY. 

The treaty was simple: Control of Corum would be given to a neutral Emperor. 

The appointment of the Emperor would be anything but simple, however. The Emperor would be a BLADE FORGER, a mystical, powerful swordsman capable of controlling powerful spirits known as BATTLE KAISERS. The Emperor would have to defend their title every five years in The Tournament of the Five Rings.

Blade Forgers from near and far come together to challenge the existing authority, and for the chance to overcome the Emperor and take their crown. 

A young Blade Forger named Owada challenges the Emperor in the name of the forsaken people. This is the story of what happens next. 

Blade Forger #1 (of 5) hits shelves March 5th, 2025.
