Mad Cave Studios invites readers to experience the world of Sunder, one issue at a time!

Originally published as a graphic novel, Sunder Vol. 1: Small Beginnings arrives in comic shops this fall as an individual issue series from creator Pierre-Alexandre Comtois, featuring colors by Mark Englert and letters by Buddy Beaudoin. Blending fantasy, science fiction, and coming-of-age adventure, the series unfolds in a universe where magic and monsters exist alongside the farthest reaches of the galaxy.

This is the story of Zeek, a goat-looking orphan living in a monastery within the far reaches of the galaxy. For reasons he was never told, he is restricted from ever going outside the perimeters of the Monastery. Taking care of the library, he reads and transcribes books filled with heroes and adventures, yet never gets to have any of his own. That is, until one day when a magical book appears in the library and attaches itself to him… Magic. Sci-fi. Adventure. Monsters. Welcome to the world of Sunder.

Sunder #1 arrives with additional variant covers by Daniele Serra and Christian Ward, alongside a foil variant and blank sketch cover.

Whether discovering it for the first time or revisiting it in individual issue format, Sunder offers readers a richly imagined fantasy-sci-fi adventure filled with magic, monsters, and wonder.

Sunder #1 goes on sale September 30, 2026, with Final Order Cut-off September 7, and is now available for preorder.
