MINISERIES PREMIERE From the Eisner Award winning team behind LITTLE BIRD and PRECIOUS METAL comes the new dark fantasy phenomenon of 2026, THE KARMAN BLADE. A DYING WORLD UNDER A TYRANT GOD! A BLADE TO FREE THEM ALL! A young man on the outskirts of a dying world is chosen by a blade forged of stars to slay the despotic deity, Kalu, and free the water he hoards in his Kingdom. Yet before the boy can begin his journey, he must first face the demons in his own life, and answer the Karman Blade’s call—“Art thou he, who taketh me in hand? Art thou he…who shall slay a God?”
