YOUR DEVOTION TO THE LAMB WILL BE TESTED ONCE MORE! In advance of Comic-Con International 2025 in San Diego, CA, Oni Press in partnership with Massive Monster and Devolver Digital, have announced the return of one of the global video game phenomenon that inspired one of the year’s biggest comics hits in the Cult of Lamb: Schism Special #1 – coming to comic shops everywhere on October 29! In the cataclysmic fallout of Cult of Lamb: The First Verse… At long last… The record-setting comic book expansion of Cult of Lamb returns in a powerful new, 48-page special – perfect for longtime acolytes and new readers alike – from acclaimed writer Alex Paknadel and Eisner Award-nominated artist Troy Little! 

In the aftermath of their first and closest follower’s sacrifice, Lamb continues the bloody quest to defeat the Bishops of the Old Faith, but they lack the conviction to tend their growing flock back at the cult. More potential followers are rescued by the day, but with no one to indoctrinate them, Lamb’s power stagnates and The One Who Waits becomes weary of his earthly vessel’s resistance to the full power and responsibility of the Red Crown. When famine strikes the cult, a challenger to Lamb’s mantle emerges, and a new struggle begins . . .

As The Lamb wills it, so shall it be done! The epic cycle of sacrifice, death and rebirth spinning out of the worldwide video game blockbuster continues this October in the Cult of Lamb: Schism Special #1 – featuring heretically curated cast of covers by Peach Momoko and Troy Little!
