Magic Is Real –  Monomyth #1 Is Now Available!

Some legends are forged in blood.

The newest fantasy horror series from Mad Cave Studios’ 2020 Talent Search winner and celebrated writer, David Hazan (NOTTINGHAM), Monomyth, is now available at your favorite local comic shop!

A story about the darkest side of stories, Monomyth shows the insidious ways the best stories use, twist, and affect their characters, and the dangers of getting stuck telling the same tired tales.

When seven strangers are transported to a strange realm, they find themselves at the doorstep of a magic school in disrepair! Magic is all but extinct in this fight for survival, where these strangers must learn to face horrors beyond their wildest imaginings, their pasts, and their very selves!

“Monomyth has been a wonderful opportunity to explore both the magic of storytelling as well as to plumb its darkest recesses…because maybe it’s just me, but if I ever got a letter inviting me to a school for magic, I’d tear it the hell up! And Cecilia and Marissa together have done such a wonderful job of illustrating that juxtaposition between wonder and terror as our cast discover that magic is both everything and nothing like what they imagined. Lucas’ innovative letters only intensify the mystery and terror in a world where magic is stories…”
-Writer, David Hazan

“David is one of my favorite collaborators and an amazing up-and-coming writer, so when I got called to work on a dark magic book with him I didn’t have to think twice about it! Cecilia and Marissa are killing it in art and colors so I hope I can bring my A-game lettering to it as well. Can´t wait for everyone to check this one out!”
-Letterer, Lucas Gattoni
