In advance of Comic-Con International 2025 in San Diego, CA, Oni Press and Glitch Productions have announced a new partnership to create comics and graphic novels based on the world of Murder Drones – Glitch’s wildly beloved adult animated series that has accrued more than 300 million views worldwide and inspired a legion of die-hard fans, eye-catching merchandise, and spin-off content in its wake. 

The new collaboration will begin with an all-new graphic novel adapting Murder Drones‘ haunting and hilarious 8-episode first season chronicling robot workers struggling to avoid obsoletion on a post-apocalyptic space colony – originally created by Liam Vickers and adapted by acclaimed writer Wyatt Kennedy and exhilarating artist Jo Mi-Gyeong. The first Murder Drones graphic novel from Oni Press will debut for pre-order alongside with an array of deluxe, collectible, and exclusive items via a new Oni Premium Direct campaign on Kickstarter launching September 8th, 2025 and then be followed by standard, serialized comic book release to comic shops worldwide in February 2026. 

From the twisted mind of creator Liam Vickers and Glitch Productions comes a heart warming story of “destroy all humans”. In the far future, a natural disaster has flash-frozen humanity’s remote mining exoplanet, Copper 9. Only now the “worker drones” – built by humanity and eventually outlived by them – have to rebuild society from the frozen ashes… An endeavor complicated by the appearance of “disassembly drones,” vampiric robot counterparts hell-bent on wiping mechanical life from the planet and an unsettling virus known as the “Absolute Solver.”

For an advance look ahead at the upcoming Murder Drones comic book adaptation, special giveaways, and more, visit Glitch Productions (Booth #301) and Oni Press (Booth #1829) at Comic Con International in San Diego, CA from Wednesday, July 23rd through Sunday, July 27th.
