The Return of Cyrus Perkins
Celebrate the 10th anniversary of the original series with the Haunted Taxi Cab Hardcover and Cyrus’ return in The Death Brigade #1!
A Long time ago amid several health issues, I misdiagnosed myself with food poisoning. Days later, I was being rushed to the hospital in a taxi cab as my body was shutting down. Between bouts of unconsciousness, I muttered to the cabbie, “If I die in this cab, I’m going to haunt it.” This was the inspiration for Cyrus Perkins.
Now, 10 years after its initial release, the acclaimed series is back with a commemorative hardcover of the original four-issue series and the long-awaited sequel, Cyrus Perkins and the Death Brigade #1.
After a young boy named Michael Bernbaum dies in his taxi cab, driver Cyrus Perkins must solve the boy’s murder… or be haunted by the spirit trapped in his car! But as Cyrus digs into the mystery surrounding Mikey’s death, he uncovers something even more sinister than murder. Drawn by Anna Lencioni (storyboard artist: Amphibia, Hazbin Hotel, Luck) and written, colored and lettered by Dave Dwonch (The Loose End, Jenny Zero, The Automaton),
Continuing immediately after the events of Cyrus Perkins and the Haunted Taxi Cab, Cyrus finds himself hunted by an evil set loose upon the world. But as the demon begins to circle its prey, revelations from the past will force Cyrus to embrace a previous life long forgotten. Drawn by newcomer, Sacha Levia, this new five-issue series is set to expand the supernatural crime noir world of Cyrus Perkins with a shocking revelation that will leave you reeling.

Los Ojos Vol 1: The Eyes of the Dead
Los Ojos is a supernatural action story for mature readers about a hitman who battles demons. Think John Wick meets John Constantine.
The adventures of a contract killer born with a unique ability: when he looks his targets in the eyes, he doesn’t see them as human…he sees them as angels or demons!
Andres Sanchez is a hitman for hire with a special ability – when he looks people in los ojos (the eyes) he doesn’t see them as human, he sees them as angels or demons. He believes demons walk among us disguised as people, and he uses his ability to select his targets, only killing those he thinks are monsters. But lately he’s started to question if his special sight is showing him the truth, or if he’s just crazy.
Haunted by the possibility that he may be killing people and not monsters, Andres now has to rethink his powers and his profession. At the same time, he’s forging a relationship with a woman and her son that he saved, learning what it means to be a father – all while secretly being hunted by both the FBI!

The Ferrokin Reforged: 10 Year Anniversary
A 10-year anniversary collection featuring award-winning omnibuses, new variant editions, busts, and the launch of Devour.
We’re Theory Comics, and welcome to our first-ever Kickstarter campaign!
For over a decade, we’ve poured everything we have into creating The Ferrokin—an award-winning, science-based graphic novel series that started as a college project and evolved into something so much bigger. It’s been a labor of love: hand-selling books at conventions, connecting with readers face to face, and building a story world that blends real science with grounded superhero drama.
Now, to celebrate the 10-Year Anniversary of The Ferrokin, we’re launching our biggest project yet—and inviting you to be a part of it!
The Croaking Volume 3
The collected edition of Volume 3 of the YALSA and Ringo nominated webcomic by Megan Grey!
When Scra’s hunt for old Crows leads to a mythical beacon in a canyon, the group is left with more questions and a burning need to discover the truth, quickly.
Tensions rise, obligations loom, and ghosts seem to haunt every corner – but when a child is found locked away in the most unlikely place, will her discovery unearth even more secrets about those meant to rule at the very top of their society?
Will Scra find the answers he needs before he, too, becomes one of the missing?
Following up on the success of the Volume 1 and Volume 2 Kickstarters, comes The Croaking Volume 3: The Memory of You – the goal of the Kickstarter is to get the comic formatted for print and into your hands as quickly as possible! The more we raise, the more stretch goals we can offer, which will be revealed as the campaign progresses!
Back at it with a new campaign to bring volume 3 of this series to life, to think more people are finding this comic from the printed books first is such a surreal concept to me. It’s all been possible through the support of readers and backers and I could not be more grateful to everyone who’s been following this journey – whether from the very start 7 (7!) years ago, or dropping in along the way – this has been such a fun experience of growth and adventure and I love that you’ve come along on this with me.
As always, I’ve been completely overwhelmed by the support this comic receives and so thankful to everyone who’s been enjoying it – here’s to the next!
Equus Siderae Volumes 1 & 2
The first 2 volumes of Dalgeor’s hit Webtoon series!
In a world full of magic that humans have yet to discover, many species are leaving behind their natural social structures to seek safety in communities and develop new ways of living. The story follows the lead mare of the Plains’ Herd, Nevisca, who discovers an ancient secret that is going to change the life of every horse forever. Is she going to make the right decisions for her kind? Or will she be seduced by her own ambitions instead?
The first volume is the beginning of Nevisca’s big adventure through this mystical world, where she is going to meet many peculiar equines like beautiful unicorns, intimidating bicorns, and elegant pegasi. The line between friends and foes is not always clear, so she will have to challenge her inner structures and open up her heart in order to choose wisely.
Equus Siderae is a fantasy comic that is told from a horse’s point of view where, ironically, many different topics of humanity are addressed: How much our social structure conditions our own feelings and emotions, the importance of respecting everyone’s values, choices, religion and ways of living without trying to impose ours, how can we find ourselves in a world that is constantly telling us how to feel, behave, think and do, and how essential it is to build your own community where you feel loved, seen and cared for. The balance between chaos and order, both in our inner world and outside us, is a recurrent topic in this series.
Was That Normal? by Alex Potts
A thoughtful, absurd graphic novel telling the relatable story of one socially awkward man’s journey through midlife.
Philip is searching. For meaning. For connection. For someone to share a moment with.
By day, he works from a rented room. By night, he drifts through cafés and bars, dodging awkward chats with his landlady and hoping for something more. When he meets Gina, a local musician, things begin to shift. But relationships are messy, and Philip’s discomfort grows as he stumbles through miscommunications, emotional misfires, and the looming presence of Gina’s intense ex.
Add in a crumbling tower, gong baths (whatever they are), and the quiet ache of modern life, and you have a story that’s tender, funny, and deeply human.
A beautifully observed graphic novel about connection, confusion, and the spaces in between.
ANTIMATTER
A One-Man-thology of Dean Haspiel Deep Cuts
In Spring of 2023, I launched a self-publishing concern focusing on a series of crowdfunded “Deep Cuts” from my personal pantheon of creator-owned characters, featuring COVID COP, BILLY DOGMA + JANE LEGIT, THE RED HOOK, and CHEST FACE. In Spring of 2026, I will be launching a one-man anthology called “Dean Haspiel’s ANTIMATTER.” From superhero to semi-autobio, ANTIMATTER flexes a sublime synergy of sequential art for mature readers.
“Dean Haspiel’s ANTIMATTER” is inspired by groundbreaking one-person comix anthologies by the likes of Dan Clowes‘ EIGHTBALL, Jessica Abel’s ARTBABE, and Adrian Tomine’s OPTIC NERVE but with a twist. Imagine if Jack Kirby owned all the characters he created and co-created for Marvel and DC Comics. From Captain America and The Hulk to The Fantastic Four and the New Gods. Now imagine Kirby launching a series called ”Kirby Krackle,” featuring new stories from any combination of his characters. Imagine picking up an issue featuring The Thing, Captain Victory, Mister Miracle and Big Barda. How cool would that be?
The debut of ANTIMATTER will feature “Covid Cop Insurrection.” While battling Admiral Amok’s horrific hybrids of America’s most coveted icons in Times Square, Lincoln Bio and Fate Majeure recruit what’s left of humanity, including the only two people immune to the deadly virus, to storm the United States Capitol to end President Pestilence’s evil reign, in hopes of starting a new society only to discover the world’s weirdest escape plan.
ANTIMATTER will also showcase the rise of AI Joe, the street beat of The Red Hook – and more!

The Comics Courier is a tabloid-sized newspaper-format journal of in-depth comics criticism aimed at fans who love a tactile, old school reading experience.
Each issue of the Courier is writer-driven, which means that our writers choose their own topics based on their own comics-related interests, so you’ll find a diversity of types and eras of comics written about in each issue.

Like with our first two issues (which you can pick up here or as an Add-On to your pledge), we are aiming to create a new space for vibrant and rigorous writing about comics in print form as well as a slower, more intentional reading experience for those who love comics criticism like we do.
