Eat Your Young #1

Writer: Brian Buccellato
Artist: Mattia Monaco
Letterer: Buddy Beaudoin

What happens when a 2,000-year-old Immortal Warlord decides he’s done? In EAT YOUR YOUNG, EDMUND IRONS names his six-year-old daughter, ELSA, as the next Alpha of his immortal clan. But every hundred years, during a brutal 27-day window known as The Centurium, his children have one chance to rip out his heart and claim the throne — or lose their immortality forever. Now, Edmund’s thirty offspring — an iconic cast of genre archetypes like The Cold War Spy, The Serial Killer, The Vigilante, The Punk Rocker, and The Billionaire Futurist — turn on their father and each other in a zero-sum battle for eternal life.

It’s a Zero-Sum Battle for Eternal Life in Eat Your Young

Posted on by

What happens when a 2,000-year-old immortal warlord decides he’s had enough?

Mad Cave Studios unleashes Eat Your Young—a visceral, character-driven blood feud from writer Brian Buccellato and artist Mattia Monaco, with letters by Buddy Beaudoin, and Cover B by Stefano Simeone.

This explosive new six-issue miniseries doesn’t just raise the stakes—it drives them straight through the heart. Eat Your Young blends brutal combat, punk-era flashbacks, Cold War espionage, and raw emotional depth into a genre-smashing epic of family, legacy, and survival. Unflinching and relentless, it’s high-stakes storytelling at its most feral.

Edmund Irons, a 2,000-year-old warlord, names his six-year-old daughter, Elsa, as the next Alpha of his immortal clan. But every hundred years, during a brutal 27-day window known as The Centurium, his children have one chance to rip out his heart and claim the throne — or lose their immortality forever. Now, Edmund’s thirty offspring — an iconic cast of genre archetypes like The Cold War Spy, The Serial Killer, The Vigilante, The Punk Rocker, and The Billionaire Futurist — turn on their father and each other in a zero-sum battle for eternal life.

Review: Knock Em Dead #5

Posted on by

Pryor Brice died…but only for a couple of seconds. He’s back now but has brought a spirit back with him.

Knock Em Dead #5 delivers an ending that’s very unexpected and very satisfying.

KNOCK ‘EM DEAD #5

Writer: Eliot Rahal 
Artist: Mattia Monaco 
Colorist: Matt Milla 
Letterer: Taylor Esposito 
Cover: Andy Clarke w/ Jose Villarrubia
$3.99 / 32 pages / Color / On Sale 4.21.2021 

It’s the curtain call. Tonight, the people were so fine. They waited there in line. And when they got up on their feet, they made the show. And that was sweet. But I can hear the sound. Of slamming doors and folding chairs. And that’s a sound they’ll never know – oh, sorry those are the lyrics to Jackson Browne’s The Load Out. Whoops. 

This is it. The final act. The last punchline. Fame has torn the Brice family apart. Can their love bring them back together?
