AHOY Comics has announced its next wave of titles for 2027: Absolutely The Wrong Earth, the latest installment of writer Tom Peyer and award-winning artist Jamal Igle’s acclaimed multiverse-hopping superhero satire; Kindergarten Gulag, a disturbing meditation on the innocent things that can hurt us most from the creative team behind Thanksgiving, writer Mark Russell and artist Mauricet; and Corduroy Road, a brutal mix of mystery and paranormal action in the tradition of Hack/Slash and Something Is Killing the Children from writer Eric Palicki and artist Chris Peterson. Also hitting stores in 2027 will be Dragonproof, a graphic novel written by Palicki and illustrated by acclaimed artist Giulia Lalli about a directionless twentysomething who unexpectedly finds herself the champion of an endangered population of dragons—funding soon via Kickstarter.

Indie comics publisher AHOY Comics’s first-ever title—The Wrong Earth by writer Tom Peyer and award-winning artist Jamal Igle—blew the multiverse concept wide open with two parallel heroes inhabiting different worlds: Earth-Alpha’s bright and campy Dragonflyman and Earth-Omega’s dark and gritty Dragonfly. The fan-favorite satire kicked off a series of acclaimed titles featuring Dragonfly, Dragonflyman, and their kid sidekick(s) Stinger, including Dragonfly vs. Dragonflyman, The Wrong Earth: Night & Day, The Wrong Earth one-shots, The Wrong Earth: We Could be Heroes, and The Wrong Earth: Dead Ringers. Now prepare to meet the final version of your favorite superhero on the wrongest earth in Peyer and Igle’s latest can’t-miss collaboration: Absolutely The Wrong Earth, a hilarious and action-packed oversized 40-page one-shot which rappels into stores near you on April 7.

This January, writer Mark Russell and artist Mauricet – the team behind indie publisher AHOY Comics’ innovative one-shot Thanksgiving – will reunite for a brand-new chilling tale in Kindergarten Gulag, a disturbing meditation on the innocent things that can hurt us most. The darkly funny one-shot follows Igby, a man who wakes up to find himself the sole inmate in a prison run by five very young, very creepy children arguing about whether or not to kill him. Kindergarten Gulag will land in stores on January 27, 2027.

Something strange is happening in Chicago, starting with the gruesome murders of the Suydam family. Enter Paul Corduroy, a P.I. and monster killer who handles cases the police can’t—and who’s about to learn a few shocking things about himself, too. Writer Eric Palicki, creator of Atlantis Wasn’t Built for Tourists and Black’s Myth, and artist Chris Peterson presents a brutal mix of mystery and paranormal action in the tradition of Hack/Slash and Something Is Killing the Children. Dragonproof is funding soon on Kickstarter.

Somewhere in the Pacific Northwest on an ill-fate camping trip, Ashleigh Cole stumbles upon a dying dragon in the woods, its hide peppered with bullet wounds and tattooed with U.S. military markings. Ash returns to her mundane life, convinced her experience in the woods was all just a hallucination—until she begins to display some oddly dragonlike characteristics herself. Compelled by voices in her mind, Ash undertakes a mission to rescue other captive dragons and help the mythical creatures escape—but the shadowy government organization determined to turn them into weapons of mass destruction has other plans. Funny, heartfelt, and action-packed, Dragonproof will appeal to adult readers who grew up on Buffy and Gargoyles and capture the imagination of post-YA readers of The Fourth Wing, ACOTAR, and more.
