Mark London returns! Mark London the CEO/CCO of Mad Cave Studios returns to the podcast and we have so much to discuss. Mark and I talk about some of the amazing series Mad Cave has published this past year for their 10th anniversary, as well as the announcements about Nakama Press and Joe Quesada's Amazing Comics. Mark tells me about the Battlecats Kickstarter, which you can back here until October 22nd. I was also excited to hear more about the Underworld Universe with 3 new series written by Mark, the first of which Revolution 9 is out September 25th. These 3 new series will culminate in a crossover called Endless Night in 2025. I cannot believe how much ground we covered. If you listen to this podcast on any kind of regular basis you know that I am a huge Mad Cave fan so this was a real joy to get to talk about all of these things with Mark. I really think you're gonna love this episode. Be sure to check out Mad Cave's website here: https://madcavestudios.com/

Revolution 9 synopsis from the publisher

After years as an assassin for the Order of Nine—an ancient order dating back almost 3,000 years—Velveteen has turned her back on the very organization that saved her. Tasked with the murder of otherwise innocent hacker Jasper Dean, she sets off to save his life and discover the terrible secret that marked him for death. With the entire Order after them, Velveteen and Jasper must escape their grasp and prevent them from toppling society as we know it.

Revolution 9 is the first thrilling title in Underworld, an all-new universe created by Mark London (Hunt. Kill. Repeat., Battlecats, Knights of the Golden Sun). Each miniseries set within can be savored as a standalone serial, while serving as a stepping stone towards ENDLESS NIGHT, the must-read crossover guaranteed to blow your mind in 2025!

From Within on Kickstarter

From Within is a martial arts revenge graphic novel about a slave fighting his way through a deadly tournament where the rules shift at the whims of a tyrannical emperor. It's a mash-up of the high-impact action sequences of Bruce Lee's films with the paranoid thriller undercurrent found in Ed Brubaker & Sean Phillips' Sleeper series. Late pledges are enabled if you happen to hear about it after the campaign officially ends.
