Secret S.T.E.A.M. Society: Music

(W) Trevor Mueller (A) Christian Colbert

The Secret S.T.E.A.M. Society is made up of a group of students from different grade levels that come together with their good friend, Toot, who is an exchange student from another planet, to learn, teach and understand the world and the universe around us. In this second adventure, the students explore the science of music. From how our vocal chords and ears work to how how sound waves can affect the brain and how instruments are built, this is a must have for any young music lover.

Music class will never be the same again! When the lead singer of the band loses her voice one week before the big show, the students of The London Academy of Ideas and Ingenuity must quickly find a replacement. Thankfully, Sebastian has the vocal pipes to rock the house. But there’s one problem: he doesn’t know anything about music! Will the kids be able to teach Sebastian about music and come together as a band before the big concert?

With the diverse class of some of the smartest students on the planet, the kids surf on sound waves, skydive through time to learn the origins of music, shrink down to see how instruments are manufactured, and so much more! Readers who love music, history, science, and arts will jam out to this adventure.

The Secret of S.T.E.A.M. Society makes Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics into the Ultimate Adventure

Papercutz has announced The Secret of S.T.E.A.M. Society, a sweeping new graphic novel series designed to spark discovery across science, technology, engineering, the arts, and mathematics.

Set inside the London Academy of Ideas and Ingenuity—a fictional 6-12 grade school that champions creativity and collaboration—the series follows a rotating cast of inventive students as they tackle real-world challenges through hands-on learning, experimentation, and a dash of fantasy alongside their friend Toot, who just so happens to be an extraterrestrial exchange student sent to earth to learn about our world. Each volume begins with the students asking big questions that relate to their studies and personal lives, before launching readers into globe-spanning adventures where they might shrink to microscopic size, time-travel through history, or even cross galaxies in pursuit of knowledge with help from Toot’s advanced alien technology.

The debut volume, Secret S.T.E.A.M. Society: Horses, arrives February 10, 2026 (hardcover $19.99 | paperback $12.99, ages 7–12, 128 pages, ISBN 9781545823316). Written by Trevor Mueller with art by Gabriel Mayorga, the adventure introduces nervous first-time rider Thea and her classmates as they dove deep—literally microscopic and cosmically far—to understand these magnificent animals. Rutgers University’s Dr. Carey A. Williams provides a foreword and contributed as a verification specialist.

Yale School of Music’s Albert R. Lee, D.M. provides a foreword and contributed as a verification specialist.

Later in 2026, veteran comic book writer Paul Kupperberg and artist Bill Walko chart humanity’s quest for the stars in Secret S.T.E.A.M. Society: Spaceflight, exploring everything from ancient rocketry to the modern space race and beyond!
