When you’re perusing the FOC list and you see names like Stephanie Williams and Chris Condon, you just hit “add to cart.”

Temporal #1 by @stephwilliams.bsky.social was a fun read. Definitely a switch up from lasts weeks Roots of Madness. It was a fun read that introduce you to the Green family and friends. With a blend of comedy, adventure, family hijinks,

So @stephwilliams.bsky.social had her new comic Temporal from @madcavestudios.com drop today, and this is an amazing series, and my review for @nerdinitiative.bsky.social doesn't even begin to tell you why I love this so much: nerdinitiative.com/2025/10/08/t...

Time travel is good at times. But in this case, this could cause ripple effects. Writer Stephanie Williams, Artist Asian Fulmore, Colorist DJ Chavis, and Letterer Becca Carey have created a beautiful ...

BytchCraft
Issue #4
Published by @madcavestudios.com
MTHR has transported Adri, Em, and Michele away from the sanctum so she can face alone the force that’s hunting wytches citywide. The danger ties back to a fateful night years ago—and that connection might be MTHR’s undoing.

Hemi enters the scene the Hemi way.

RED VECTOR #2, by @dbandry.bsky.social, @timdanielcomics.bsky.social, @sjanweijers.bsky.social, @bertacious.bsky.social, @jamesbemmett.bsky.social & me.

Out now! Go! Go pick it up (if you like)!

Three panels from issue two of the Red Vector comic book series. Hemi's SUV storming through the Sonoran desert. His buddy Tate in the passenger seat looks terrified. Then Hemi looks over his shoulder, big, dark grin on his punchable face.

If you missed THE SLASHER'S APPRENTICE, or just want to collect the whole thing in one, you can get your hands on the whole thing just in time for Halloween! Ring in the best holiday with the goriest of fun. Ask your comic shop to order it now so they have it when it releases on 10/27!

One of my favorite things I've read this year is CRUSH DEPTH from @madcavestudios.com

You're probably familiar with the setup, it's been done a lot, but rarely have I seen it done this well. It knocked me back. The depth of character was striking immediately. These people aren't cannon fodder. 🧵

Did you get SPECTRUM yet?!

Dave Chisholm @davechisholmcomics.com · Jun 5

A page from the first and third chapters of SPECTRUM.

Echoes abound.

The collected edition drops in July, courtesy of @madcavestudios.com.

Words by @riqkquinn.bsky.social
Pictures by me.

🛸 🦋 🎺 🤖

A page from the first chapter of SPECTRUM. An birds-eye view of a riot. There are a few circular panels with unusual things in them. People wearing pig masks, a robot, an alien in a flying saucer, and a tall figure in red.

A page from the third chapter of SPECTRUM. A birds-eye view of Mardi Gras. There are circular panels again containing unusual things: a man with a knife, a red figure in an oversized devil mask, two young women materializing, and a beauty queen.
The circular panels are a mirror image of the other image in this post.
