Vault Comics and Inanna Sarkis Announce an Inanna: The Name She Lost Series

Vault and writer, director, and actress, Inanna Sarkis, have announced a Inanna: The Name She Lost single issue comic book series. Sarkis is joined by Eisner-nominated and New York Times bestselling writer Tim Seeley, and the phenomenal artist Ademir Leal to tell a modern reimagining of the story of the ancient Sumerian goddess of love and war.  

Inanna: The Name She Lost #1 will hit store shelves in November, 2026. The debut issue will feature a stellar lineup of collectible variant covers from an epic lineup of artists including Tula Lotay, Annie Wu, Serena Bell, Meredith McClaren, Adriana Melo, Seth Adams, and series artist Ademir Leal.  

The story begins in San Francisco, once the heart of a counterculture movement of peace and love, now a city at war with itself. Mayor and presidential hopeful Tim Teller promises to fix the problems, but he has a new issue. On a brisk September evening, Inanna emerges from the Bay, wearing nothing but a lapis necklace. She remembers little more than her name… and a deep sense of rage. Possessed of immense strength and unwavering charisma, Inanna becomes a champion of the people. But her immortal life as a goddess of love and war is coming back to haunt her. Ancient enemies and modern mythic forces collide as love and war clash in a battle for the soul of humanity—and Inanna herself.

Vault announces Darkest Dungeon, graphic novels based on the video game series by Red Hook Studios

Vault Comics has announced that it will publish graphic novels based on the Darkest Dungeon series of games developed and published by Red Hook Studios.

Vault’s Darkest Dungeon graphic novels will be written by John Lees, and drawn by Maan House, working in close consultation with Red Hook Studios co-founder and Darkest Dungeon creative director, Chris Bourassa. Lees is known for his writing on acclaimed horror titles like The Nasty and Hotell. Meanwhile, House is known for drawing Dark Souls, based on the bestselling video game, along with other other horror titles like The Cemeterians.

Debuting in 2016, Darkest Dungeon is a gothic roguelike turn-based RPG about the psychological stresses of adventuring, co-created by Chris Bourassa and Tyler Sigman. Players recruit, train, and lead a team of flawed heroes against unimaginable horrors, stress, disease, and the ever-encroaching dark. Widely acclaimed for its gameplay and storytelling, and notorious among gamers for its difficulty, Darkest Dungeon is among the most beloved independent games of the last decade. In 2023, Red Hook Studios, published the sequel, Darkest Dungeon II, which received widespread acclaim.

Vault’s all-new graphic novels will tell a canonical story set in the universe of Darkest Dungeon, revealing new details and introducing new mysteries at the heart of the Darkest Dungeon core mythology. Vault’s Darkest Dungeon graphic novels will debut with a launch campaign on BackerKit. Pre-launch sign-ups are now live.

Vault Chief Creative Officer and co-founder, Adrian Wassel, will lead the project for Vault, alongside Vault VP of Special Projects and Crowdfunding, Der-shing Helmer, with Bourassa overseeing creative for Red Hook Studios.

Vault announces Corin Howll’s Lilith: Blood & Burlesque

Vault has announced the return of Corin Howell’s smash-hit sapphic horror series, Lilith, with Lilith: Blood & Burlesque. The brand new comic book series will see Howell joined by colorist Warnia Sahadewa and letterer Haley Rose-Lyon to bring back the beloved characters Lilith and Penny as they continue their journey to bring Lilith home.

The character Lilith, created by Howell, began as a genuine social media phenomenon. Howell’s Lilith illustrations have garnered millions of likes on Howell’s social platforms, making Lilith one of the most popular original illustrated characters on social media. Then in 2024, Howell & Vault partnered to publish a Lilith comic book series that became an immediate critical darling and commercial hit with multiple sell outs and new printings.

Lilith is an immortal who’s been banished from her home, a dimensional plane suspiciously similar to mankind’s idea of hell. She’s been posing as a model on Earth while secretly preying on humans. That is, until she runs into Penelope, a sweet bookstore owner with a tome that might hold the secret to returning Lilith to her home dimension.

Lilith: Blood & Burlesque #1 will hit comic book store shelves everywhere this October. The debut issue will feature a phenomenal line of variant covers by some of the most beloved artists in the world, including Mirka Andolfo, Suspiria, Luana Vecchio, Chloe, Garth Graham, and more.

Everyone’s favorite man-eating demon is back! Penny’s bookstore is still a mess after the monster attack. Much to Lilith’s dismay, Michael proposes a great idea: Why not make a sexy calendar to raise funds to pay for the shop repairs? Meanwhile, Lilith and Penny start making good progress on translating the book that could help Lilith get back home. But what will Penelope think if she learns Lilith’s true motive—and true nature? Seems like Lilith is bound to find out when a sinister and sexy pair from her past emerges at a burlesque show.

Excommunicated #2 Delivers a Heaven and Hell Odd Couple Adventure

Excommunicated #2

Josephine joins forces with the demon Edimmu to avoid a horrific attack, but when she comes to, she has no memory of how she got to the train station. When she realizes the demon is manipulating her and that she has no choice but to accept his help, she confronts Father Santos and returns to the site of the failed exorcism…where Vatican forces are waiting for them! Excommunicated #2 ups the violence as our unlikely pair must figure out what exactly is going on.

Written by Jeremy Robinson, Excommunicated #2 is simply a buddy-cop story with a rather odd pairing. Instead of the cop that plays by the rules and the wild card, we get a former nun who generally plays by the rules and a demon who for some reason can’t go back to hell. Both are trying to figure out what’s going on and why sending them on a series of moments as they try to put the pieces of the puzzle together.

Josephine and Edimmu are an interesting pairing with potential. They obviously don’t get along and generally don’t like each other but are forced to work together to try to figure out each of their mysteries. Someone tried to kill Josephine and someone has locked Edimmu out of hell. Most likely… the same someone. It’s not that complicated of a concept but it’s pairing delivers something new and interesting. The comic has potential as the two debate religion and various beliefs and rules but the comic only touches upon that topic briefly at various times leaving serious debate with the reader and themselves.

The art by Tiago Palma is fun with color by Manuel J. Rodriguez and lettering by Jim Campbell. The comic looks good with the character designs and it delivers a lot of its humor with images that are exaggerated and over the top in their delivery. There’s some interesting aspects to the art, particularly when the demon possesses individuals, and more than enough to give the comic a pop sense to its craziness.

Excommunicated #2 is a fun comic that doesn’t take itself too seriously and is the shallow action story its story genes generally deliver. This isn’t a story of depth, instead going for crazy action and violence, enough to give pause to catch all of the details of the carnage. It’s an overall fun issue that delivers on the potential of the series, one you can sit back and enjoy without thinking too much.
