(W) Mark London (A) Karl Mostert (C) David Baron (L) Dave Sharpe

In Exit City, there’s a thin line between good and evil, and Detectives McCormick and Miller are about to find out the hard way. When they come to the scene of a brutal accident, McCormick and Miller must work together through a web of seedy criminals, genetic experiments, and crooked government officials. But those aren’t the only things standing in their way, because McCormick is hiding a secret that would make anyone question his capabilities and their own reality.

Exit City Vol. 1

In Exit City, the Line Between Good and Evil Blurs

The tense sci-fi crime saga Exit City from Mad Cave Studios arrives in a full trade paperback edition this spring, collecting the complete series by writer Mark London and artists Karl Mostert and Ramon Villalobos.

Known for its moody visuals and propulsive pacing, Exit City blends noir grit with a dystopian edge. David Baron’s bold colors and Dave Sharpe’s lettering bring the narrative to life, while Raymund Bermudez and Sebastian Chang deliver a striking cover that sets the tone for this layered and dangerous world.

In Exit City, there’s a thin line between good and evil, and Detectives McCormick and Miller are about to find out the hard way. When they come to the scene of a brutal accident, it becomes clear that the Major Crimes division was called in for a reason. With minimal evidence, McCormick and Miller must work together through a web of seedy criminals, genetic experiments, and a crooked government. But that’s not the only thing standing in their way; McCormick is hiding a secret that would make anyone question his capabilities.

The trade paperback drops in shops May 14, 2025, and is now available for preorder.

Karl Mostert has passed away

It’s been a rough few months in the comic world with the loss of a lot of talent at such young ages. It has been announced that Karl Mostert has passed away.

A concept artist, comic book illustrator, and designer, he has worked for multiple publishers including Mad Cave Studios, DC Comics, and Aftershock. Relatively new to the industry, he was already beloved with multiple creators heaping praise and kind words towards him upon learning of the shocking news.

He’s worked on such series as DCeased: Unkillables, Batman: Urban Legends, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, The Man Who F#$%ed Up Time, and the upcoming Exit City at Mad Cave.

Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and fans. He’s a talent lost far too young.

With Batman preoccupied, his deepest, darkest, most dangerous secrets are about to be auctioned off to the highest bidder. The guest list is strictly villains only, and the outlaw Red Hood fits the bill—putting him on a collision course with Batman’s deniable black-ops team, the Outsiders! With Lazarus Island spawning wild-card superpowers across the globe, the stakes could not be higher. Jason Todd, Black Lightning, and Katana will have to put aside their differences to save Batman’s legacy—and with it, the world. That’s assuming they don’t kill each other first!
