Love, Lies, and Rogue Code! Mad Cave Announces Boxed

One rogue A.I. One broken agent. Zero trust.

From Mad Cave Studios comes BOXED, a sleek and timely original graphic novel that confronts our deepest digital fears—by way of a dangerously intimate reunion.
Written by Mark Sable (Graveyard of Empires, Unthinkable), illustrated by Jeremy Haun (The Beauty, The Approach), with colors by Nick Filardi (Rogue Planet) and letters by Thomas Mauer (Popgun), Boxed is a cautionary tale about consent, control, and the very human costs of artificial love.

SNEAK PEEK!

How do you rein in a rogue AI? We’ve got a sneak peek inside the pages of Boxed – check it out below!

Trust is fragile, especially when built on secrets, programming, and power. Fans of Black Mirror, Ex Machina, Westworld, and The Vision will find awe and intrigue in Boxed—a darkly romantic, morally tangled story for readers who ask AI to write them poetry at 2 a.m.

Boxed hits shelves on September 9, 2025. Preorder at your local comic shop and prepare to question everything you think you know about love, trust, and technology!
