Matt Kindt and Brian Hurtt’s Fort Psycho #2 Ups The Ante in September – Featuring Covers by Lewis LaRosa, Mike Del Mundo, Joe Palmer, and more!

Oni Press and Flux House present your first look inside Fort Psycho #2 (of 12), the next chapter of the year’s most explosive action comic from New York Times bestselling writer Matt Kindt and adrenaline-racing artist Brian Hurtt! This September, descend even deeper into the off-the-grid island prison stocked with trained killers, secret betrayals, and the long-buried truth about the mission that led them there as the second issue of the high-octane new series Fort Psycho #2 unholsters the big guns with covers and variants from series co-creator Brian Hurtt alongside dangerously talented artists Lewis LaRosa, Mike Del Mundo, and Joe Palmer!

As the secrets of the forfeited island prison called Fort Psycho deepen, the paranoid tension between its secrets-agents-turned-inmates comes to a rolling boil! Our hero holds his breath because this gilded cage is still a cage, even if it’s an island paradise! With Jason tasked with tracking down the true identity of the Seven Seals’ secretive leader, known as the Blue Bishop, he’s finding it harder and harder to separate his former comrades and future foes. Anyone could be involved, and everyone has something to lose—the pressure is on to unearth the rat among this band of ex-commando espionage agents! After all, Jason has no choice . . . if he fails, the consequences will be far worse than his prison sentence.

Debuting in August, each issue of Fort Psycho will maximize the power of comic book storytelling in the most aggressive and high intensity manner ever attempted on the printed page, thanks to a new publishing format called PSYCHO-VISION. Upping the ante with upgrades across all 12 issues in Kindt and Hurtt’s masterclass in super-spy betrayal and subversion, each issue of Fort Psycho will feature panton-keyed covers on 10 pt. cardstock with a maximized, ad-free format brimming with back matter (to say nothing of the violence and harsh language).

When readers pre-order all 12 issues of Fort Psycho by June 29th, they’ll receive a special reward: Fort Psycho #0 — the only single-issue compilation of three new short stories debuting across the coming year into one standalone comic book. Fort Psycho’s prized Bundle Buddies – widely regarded for their rugged disposition and prized tactical know-how – will ALSO receive specially modified, pre-order variant editions of Brian Hurtt’s covers for all 12 issues … now embellished with witty dialogue from the mind of Matt Kindt and specialty corner box artwork by Brian Hurtt.

Fort Psycho #1 Electrifies with High-Voltage Covers by Brian Hurtt, Lewis LaRosa, Inaki Miranda, David Rubín, Kyle Starks, Dustin Weaver, and More!

Oni Press and Flux House unleash a barrage of armor-piercing covers for Fort Psycho #1 (of 12), the 40-PAGE FIRST ISSUE of a powerful new maxi-series from New York Times bestselling writer Matt Kindt and adrenaline-racing artist Brian Hurtt! This August, enter an off-the-grid island prison stocked with trained killers, secret betrayals, and the long-buried truth about the mission that led them there as Fort Psycho #1 unleashes one of the summer’s most formidable line-ups of covers and variants from artists including series co-creator Brian Hurtt alongside ​Lewis LaRosa, Inaki Miranda​, David Rubin, Kyle Starks, and Dustin Weaver— including foil, black & white, metal and blank sketch variants.

Ten years ago, the nation of Singapore sank into the Pacific Ocean. The underground terrorist network known as The Seven Seals took credit for the largest act of terror in human history. In the aftermath, the United Nations created a strike team of highly trained covert operatives with one mission: locate, identify, and eliminate The Seven Seals’ secretive leader. The team’s clandestine affairs were to always remain in the shadows – until their final, explosive confrontation with The Seven Seals resulted in a large-scale tragedy too bloody to cover up and too tragic to ignore. 

Disgraced and disavowed by the governments that trained them, the world’s most dangerous secret agents have been convicted for their crimes and sentenced to serve time side-by-side in the one place capable of holding them: their old island headquarters, Fort Cyclone – now known in the media by the derogatory nickname “Fort Psycho.” 

And that’s where the official story is about to go terribly, terribly wrong.

WARNING: YOU HAVE UNTIL AUGUST 2026 TO REACH MINIMUM SAFE DISTANCE FROM Fort Pyscho #1 –   the brand-new, ticking time bomb of comic book firepower!

The two-fisted spectacle of subversion leads directly into two of the year’s biggest creator-owned comics launches: June’s Mind MGMT: New & Improved #1 by Matt Kindt and August’s Fort Psycho #1 by Kindt and co-creator/artist Brian Hurtt.

  • Mind MGMT: New & Improved #1: Ten years ago, the extra-governmental agency known as Mind Management exploded in a barrage of bullets and brain matter. Those that survived have gone underground—forging new lives with unremarkable identities and falsified pasts to obfuscate the strange abilities that once made them highly prized assets in the global war for psychic control. Now, two investigators—Detective Delphi and Detective Swon—have found themselves at the center of an unexpected puzzle. Here: A man poisoned in a coffee shop with a sophisticated neurotoxin. There: A supposed suicide victim run over by a train . . . with his arms found in a trash can five miles from the tracks. Their connection: Someone is killing former Mind Management agents in improbable and arcane ways . . . Seemingly impossible crimes committed by a faceless killer capable of evading even the most pervasive digital surveillance. What secret are they killing to protect? Who will be next? Has Mind Management returned? Did it ever go away? You are paranoid . . . but are you paranoid enough?
  • Fort Psycho #1: BOOM! BANG! DUCK! For the international commandos codenamed SHIV, LYCAN, and DRAGONFLY, a routine mission to catch-and-kill a fugitive from the world’s most wanted terror sect is about to go very, very wrong. Who are THE SEVEN SEALS? And what terrible price will the men and women of Fort Psycho pay to bring them to justice? Find out when Fort Psycho #1 launches its attack on readers this August!

Mind MGMT: New & Improved #1 Kicks Off a Whole New Mind Fuck

Mind MGMT: New & Improved #1

Ten years ago, the extra-governmental agency known as Mind Management exploded in a barrage of bullets and brain matter. Those that survived have gone underground—forging new lives with unremarkable identities and falsified pasts to obfuscate the strange abilities that once made them highly prized assets in the global war for psychic control. Now, two investigators—Detective Delphi and Detective Swan—have found themselves at the center of an unexpected puzzle. Here: A man poisoned in a coffee shop with a sophisticated neurotoxin. There: A supposed suicide victim run over by a train . . . with his arms found in a trash can five miles from the tracks. Their connection: Someone is killing former Mind Management agents in improbable and arcane ways . . . Seemingly impossible crimes committed by a faceless killer capable of evading even the most pervasive digital surveillance. What secret are they killing to protect? Who will be next? Has Mind Management returned? Did it ever go away? You are paranoid . . . but are you paranoid enough? Mind MGMT: New & Improved #1 is a whole new volume… or is it a new start… or is it a continuation of what came before…

Matt Kindt‘s Mind MGMT is an experience to read. It’s a comic whose mystery and oddity extends beyond the page to the margins, between the panels, the introduction of the comic, the back of it, everything is part of the story and world. It’s one whose every detail tells the story and expands the experience. Mind MGMT: New & Improved #1 dives right into that with a credit page that goes on and on introducing the comic and world in what has come before. But, that doesn’t matter… or does it… is it continuity… is it all fiction, a lie… That’s part of what makes this new series so much fun.

Mind MGMT: New & Improved #1 is new and improved in some ways, playing with its concept and delivering it in a way that new readers can dive right into the world of manipulation and longtime fans can sit pondering if everything they read before matters. It starts with a mindfuck and goes from there.

The story itself feels straightforward, someone is killing possibly former agents and two agents need to find out who and why. It’s about as simple as you can get. But, it’s Kindt’s delivery of it that sucks you in, making you question your own reality and what you do and don’t know is fact.

The art adds to the experience with Kindt’s distinct style that has an almost watercolor quality about it. The art is one that readers need to pay attention to because you never know what detail is hidden within delivering a clue as to what’s real and what’s not. It’s a seamless continuation of the style that was prevalent in previous volumes, down to the fun additions beyond the panels.

Mind MGMT: New & Improved #1 is a perfect start for new readers, easing them into the rabbit hole. Fans will appreciate being left to guess if this is really a new start or a continuation of the weirdness that has come before. It’s an issue that can be read either way creating a mystery that’ll suck you in. It’s a welcome return to what hopefully will be a long run and further expansion of the world.
