Written by madcave25
Published on 18 July 2025

Get ready for a gonzo splatterfest packed with cults, corpses, and consequences…

Mad Cave Studios is proud to announce GUNPOWDER PROPHETS, a full-throttle supernatural grindhouse horror series in five blood-soaked issues—written by Justin Jordan (The Strange Talent of Luther Strode), illustrated by Patrick Piazzalunga (Monsters Are My Business), with colors by Roman Stevens (Batman Begins) and letters by award-winning Taylor Esposito, featuring a variant cover by Jorge Corona (Batgirls, Middlewest).

GUNPOWDER PROPHETS
Writer: Justin Jordan – Artist: Patrick Piazzalunga
Colorist: Roman Stevens – Letterer: Taylor Esposito
Release Date: October 1st, 2025

Synopsis: Huck and Marley help people for money. Well, in theory anyway… For some reason, their “help” always seems to involve massive amounts of property damage, a somehow guaranteed collision with the supernatural, and if Marley has his way, a huge body count. They’re the Gunpowder Prophets, and a simple job rescuing a girl from a backwoods cult turns weird when the super groovy leader’s supernatural powers turn out to be very, very real. It’s seventies-style horror mixed with grindhouse action in Gunpowder Prophets. Gonzo over-the-top action horror from Justin Jordan (The Strange Talent of Luther Strode), Patrick Piazzalunga (Monsters are My Business), Roman Stevens, and Taylor Esposito.
