The Pale Knight

(W) Peter Milligan (A) Val Rodrigues (C) Cristiane Peter (L) Dave Sharpe

England, 1349. Sir Hugh de Grey, the Pale Knight, returns from war to find a land ravaged by the Black Death, and his son dying of the plague. When he prays to God to save his son’s life, it is not God who answers—but Death himself. And Death is willing to cut a deal.

Written by the acclaimed Peter Milligan (Enigma, Shade the Changing, XStatix) and illustrated by Val Rodrigues (Deep Roots, Unnatural Order), with colors by Cristiane Peter, and letters by Dave Sharpe, The Pale Knight immerses readers in a world ravaged by plague and despair.

Blade Forger

(W) Roy and Inaki Miranda (A) Inaki Miranda (C) Eva De La Cruz (L) Dave Sharpe

No matter who you are or where you’re from, with enough aspiration, courage and training you could become a Blade Forger, win the tournament and be the new Emperor.

The discovery of CORUM, a never seen before energy source, led to a bloody world war for its control. After years of destruction, the Lords of the Lands agreed to negotiate a ceasefire for lasting peace. The BLADE FORGERS TREATY was born from that meeting.

This treaty established that the mining of Corum would be centralized through one government, led by a neutral Emperor. The Emperor would have to be a BLADE FORGER, a mystical swordsman, and claim the title in a tournament called The Tournament of the Five Rings. Every five years Blade Forgers from every corner of the Empire would fight for the possibility of becoming the new Emperor.

A young Blade Forger named Owada challenges the Emperor in the name of the forsaken people. This is the story of what happens next.

Roy and Inaki Miranda team again for Blade Forger

Four years after publishing their Eisner-nominated hit We Live, the Miranda Brothers once again combine forces for Blade Forger, only from Mad Cave Studios

Co-created and written by the team that brought readers We LiveRoy Miranda and Inaki Miranda, features art and Cover A by Inaki Miranda, colors by Eva De La Cruz and letters by Dave Sharpe—the series that begs the question, What happens when utopia is born from necessity—can one person change the world?

The discovery of CORUM, a never-before-seen energy source, led to a bloody world war for its control. These wars, and the devastation they caused, would lead to the BLADE FORGERS TREATY. 

The treaty was simple: Control of Corum would be given to a neutral Emperor. 

The appointment of the Emperor would be anything but simple, however. The Emperor would be a BLADE FORGER, a mystical, powerful swordsman capable of controlling powerful spirits known as BATTLE KAISERS. The Emperor would have to defend their title every five years in The Tournament of the Five Rings.

Blade Forgers from near and far come together to challenge the existing authority, and for the chance to overcome the Emperor and take their crown. 

A young Blade Forger named Owada challenges the Emperor in the name of the forsaken people. This is the story of what happens next.
