Big adventures come in the smallest packages! Meet the Pi-Rats—a fearless crew of pirate rodents determined to claim the ocean’s biggest bounty! Papercutz, an imprint of Mad Cave Studios, has announced The Pi-Rats Vol. 1: Set Sail for Treasure, a 96-page full-color middle-grade graphic novel by Chilean creator Alexis Vivallo—charting the Captain and his loyal shipmates as their teapot ship sails headlong into chaos!
The Captain of the Pi-Rats, along with his trusty crew, Miguel and José, set sail on this sea-faring adventure! When the Pi-Rats crash their teapot ship on a mysterious island, they must band together to explore—and survive—the creatures that live there! Beyond that, though, they must try to save the other rats from a wizard and his yowling beast. Then, the Pi-Rats fight! Are the Pi-Rats over so soon? Now venturing into the sewers for treasure, our intrepid heroes have separated and joined new crews… but is this goodbye for now or goodbye forever? And can they all escape the stinking sewers?
Preorders for The Pi-Rats Vol. 1: Set Sail for Treasure are open now at all major and independent booksellers, comic shops, Bookshop, Amazon, and the Papercutz site. The graphic novel is set to sail on January 20, 2026.
