The Only Survivor of a Legendary Killing Spree Must Face the Monster Who Refuses to Stay Dead in Hammer Head

Posted on by Leave a comment

Terror can’t be contained, and Mad Cave Studios resurrects one of horror’s deadliest nightmares with Hammer Head, the brutal new five-issue series from acclaimed collaborators, writer Ed Brisson and artist Damian Couceiro, with colors by Dee Cunniffe and letters by Patrick Brosseau.

For 20 years, Jules has been hiding from her past. As the only survivor of the Hammer Head killing spree, she carries the guilt and trauma of having watched as everyone she loved was brutally murdered. Every couple of years, Hammer Head rises from the dead to continue his reign of terror anew, and with each repeated massacre, Jules falls deeper into the warm embrace of her own dark coping mechanisms.

When she’s thrown into prison with no trial and no hope, Jules finds herself part of a dark ritual built to force her back into the past that she’s spent her life trying to escape.

The debut issue features Cover A by Damian Couceiro, Cover B by Justin Coffee, Cover C and Cover D by Bjorn Barends.

Blending supernatural horror with classic slasher thrills, Hammer Head is perfect for fans of Friday the 13th, Halloween, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Centered on the lone survivor of an endless cycle of massacres, the series delivers a fresh take on the unstoppable killer through the lens of trauma, survival, and the horrors that refuse to stay buried.

Hammer Head #1 goes on sale October 7, 2026, with Final Order Cut-off on September 14. 

Witchblade passes the Gauntlet around with Team-Up Variants this September

Posted on by Leave a comment

Image Comics and Top Cow have revealed a line-wide Witchblade Team-Up variant covers in celebration of the milestone Witchblade (2024) #25 issue’s premiere this September. Some of the biggest names in comics will put their artistic spin on Witchblade as its iconic characters make an appearance across the covers of some of Image’s most popular ongoing series.

Witchblade is a comic book series published by Top Cow Productions, which ran from November 1995 to October 2015 and December 2017 to January 2020. The series was created by Marc Silvestri, David Wohl, Brian Haberlin, and Michael Turner. The comic series was made into a TNT television series in 2001 and was directed by Ralph Hemecher and starred Yancy Butler as Sara Pezzini. Later, Top Cow and Japanese animation studio Gonzo produced an anime adaptation of Witchblade, which debuted in 2006.

Marguerite Bennett and Guiseppe Cafaro’s current run on Witchblade (2024) features a reimagined origin, with contemporary takes on familiar characters, as well as fresh story arcs to hook new fans and rekindle the energy and excitement that fueled the ’90s Image Revolution. New York City Police Detective Sara Pezzini’s life is forever fractured by her father’s murder. Cold, cunning, and hellbent on revenge, Sara now stalks a vicious criminal cabal beneath the city, where an ancient power collides and transforms her into something wild, magnificent, and beyond her darkest imaginings. How will Sara use this ancient power? …Or will she be consumed by it?

Witchblade will appear on the covers of:

The woman who defined the Golden Age of comics. Ruth Roche: The Phantom Hand of Comics

Posted on by

This fall, Mad Cave Studios brings long-overdue focus to Ruth Roche, a defining voice of the Golden Age who helped shape comics from behind the scenes. Ruth Roche: The Phantom Hand of Comics, a graphic biography written by Eisner-nominated editor Joe Corallo and artist Meghan Hetrick, with colors by Dee Cunniffe, and letters by Morgan Martinez, brings a long-overlooked figure in comics history into view, told in the medium she helped shape.

Finally, a book that highlights the pioneering, yet too often overlooked, comics career of Ruth Roche using the medium she most closely worked in as a writer, editor, and business partner to the legendary Jerry Iger. Following Ruth’s journey from a young woman with a penchant for storytelling, through the Golden Age of comics, where Ruth worked in the midst of the action–until the fateful Wertham Trials brought all of it to an end.

A biography with historical reconstruction, Ruth Roche: The Phantom Hand of Comics restores a key creative force to the broader history of comics, aligning with titles like Tell Me a Story Where the Bad Girl Wins: The Life and Art of Barbara Shermund by Caitlin McGurk and the influential historical work of Trina Robbins, underscoring a growing interest in biographical and archival comics scholarship.

Ruth Roche: The Phantom Hand of Comics goes on sale October 13, 2026, in paperback (ISBN: 9781545812624 | $19.99) and hardcover (ISBN: 9781545827376 | $29.99) formats. Final order cut-off is September 21, and it is now available for preorder at your favorite bookstore, comics shop, and directly from Mad Cave.
