In advance of Comic-Con International in San Diego, Oni Press – the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997– has brokered a new, multi-project deal with multiple Eisner Award-winning creator Christian Ward (Event Horizon, Batman: City of Madness).
Extending beyond the upcoming release of The Forever Home #1 – Ward’s startling six-part series with artist and co-creator Sami Kivelä (Abbott), beginning in September – the new deal will include three new creator-owned projects featuring Ward’s talents as both a writer and artist in various capacities.
The first of three new series will debut in 2027. Creative details for all three are being kept under wraps.
”Over the course of almost two decades I’ve been fortunate to have enjoyed working with every major publisher, so it’s with authority when I say Oni Press is one of the very best of them,” said Christian Ward. “This last 18 months working with Sierra, Hunter, and the whole ONI team has been fantastic. Everyone is so passionate about making bold and distinctive comics and the support myself and Sami have received on our book has been second to none.”
“When Christian and I first met nearly three years ago, we quickly found common ground over the kinds of comics that excited us most–left of center stories that gave readers something thrilling and unexpected. Christian and Sami Kivelä’s The Forever Home delivers on every front,” said Sierra Hahn Oni Press editor in chief.
Fans attending San Diego Comic-Con International at the San Diego Convention Center can visit the Oni Press booth #1829 from July 22 through July 26 for exclusive merchandise and giveaways.
