Technology Becomes Magic in Minotaur from Si Spurrier and Mike Dowling
As technology advances at a frighteningly exponential pace, can humanity put the artificially intelligent genie back in the bottle? And what happens when our fears manifest in even more horrifying ways? Writer Si Spurrier and Mike Dowling combine monsters and microchips in their new ongoing series Minotaur. The first issue will be released by Ignition Press on July 15th, 2026.
Five years ago, a government supercomputer triggered the Singularity: an explosion of technological superintelligence heralding an unimaginable tomorrow.
At least, it almost did. Within moments, a failsafe activated. The plug was pulled. The future was aborted. But something leaked in those first picoseconds, through wire and wave. And now?
The future fights back. Inexplicable events. Miracles and monsters. Harbingers of revolution…or apocalypse?
Minotaur is the tale of Gloria Monday, a photojournalist documenting the lives of those, like her, who are haunted, tortured, and transformed by outbreaks of the future; along with the no nonsense ex-military muscle who watches her six, and the reformed tech bro secretly bankrolling their global mission to expose it all.
Minotaur #1 is available in comic shops July 15th from writer Si Spurrier and Mike Dowling, with colors by Sofie Dodgson and letters by the award-winning Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou. This issue features two open-to-order covers from Dowling and Anwita Citriya, along with a retailer incentive cover by Martin Simmonds and an Ignition Exclusive cover by Jock.
