Time is breaking—and Aubrey Street might be the one tearing at the seams.
Mad Cave Studios is proud to announce LIQUIDATOR, a razor‑sharp blend of historical intrigue and speculative fiction that’s less about the nuts and bolts of time travel and more about the scars it leaves behind.
Written by Peter Milligan (Enigma, X‑Statix, Britannia) and brought to life with art by Piotr Kowalski (Where Monsters Lie, Bloodborne), colors from Brad Simpson (Kroma, Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.) and letters by Simon Bowland (The Boys: Dear Becky, Cry Havoc), this time‑bending thriller features Cover A by Kowalski and a striking Cover B by Brendan McCarthy (2000 AD, Strange Days).

Synopsis: When Aubrey Street arrives in 1891 looking for a feminist masterpiece that won’t be published for almost 100 years, she worries that 1981 might be rejecting her. Aubrey is a Liquidator—her job is to fix glitches in time. She just wishes she could fix the glitches in her life. In another part of Gilded Age New York, John Hawksmore plans to kill a servant girl whose life has been turned upside down by the book she found in her employer’s library. Somehow, all their lives are connected. They just don’t know it yet…
Meet the Creators!
“First and foremost, I absolutely love stories (whether in comics or film) that explore the complex concept of traveling into the past or future. Peter Milligan has crafted a truly unique script, one where time travel is experienced through the eyes of a main character who’s hurled into different eras as part of her job. And that job… is more than a little dangerous. Throughout the story, she makes startling discoveries about herself, encounters her greatest enemy, and even meets someone who will become a trusted friend. I think readers will have a great time with this book, there’s something for everyone: a dash of adventure, moments of human drama, and, for those who like their tales on the darker side, an unexpected plunge into the morbid world of forbidden occult rituals.” – Artist, Piotr Kowalski
If you’ve read my stories you’ll know they’re populated by their fair share of the messed up, the troubled, and the sick at heart. In Liquidator, these damaged fools find a home. For to be a Liquidator is to travel time. And that messes you up. So maybe it helps to be a little messed up to begin with. I hope the reader will get as big a kick as I have, following our broken-down heroes navigate time’s many idiosyncrasies. – Writer, Peter Milligan
For fans of Kindred and Paper Girls, with the character‑driven time politics of Loki and The Ministry of Time. Liquidator is gothic, feminist, and unafraid to ask what makes someone fit to rewrite history. It’s a time‑travel story for readers who care about people more than paradoxes!
Liquidator #1 hits shelves on November 12, 2025 (FOC is October 20). Pre-order through your local comic shop or at madcavestudios.com!
