Oni Press – the multiple Eisner and Harvey award-winning comic book and graphic novel publisher – is proud to reveal your first look inside XINO #1 (of 3) – the 40-PAGE, FIRST ISSUE for the highly anticipated science-fiction comics event of the summer, featuring creators Melissa Flores (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, The Dead Lucky) & Daniel Irizarri (Judge Dredd), Phil Hester (Gotham City: Year One), Chris Condon (That Texas Blood) & Nick Cagnetti (Pink Lemonade), and Jordan Thomas (Weird Work) & Shaky Kane (The Bulletproof Coffin)!

It’s 2023, and the only thing you can trust is XINO … so surrender your consciousness to Oni as we present three oversized installments of intra-ocular entertainment that will manipulate your hopes, dreams, desires, paranoia, alienation, anxiety, and adrenaline to produce the desired results, beginning with: 
  • “HUE” by Melissa Flores & Daniel Irizarri, as they surgically activate the hidden dimensions of the human senses.
  • “THE CHIP” by Chris Condon (That Texas Blood) & Nick Cagnetti (Pink Lemonade), as they playtest the world's first intravenous video game system.
  • “RABBITS” by Jordan Thomas & Shaky Kane, who are surveilling the suburbs for signs of covert infiltration.
  • And, last but not least, “SHE TOOK THE AIR” by master cartoonist and foundational Oni creator Phil Hester as he returns to the fold to let us know the kids of the future are alright.
Side effects may include: A debilitating quantity of Jungian hyper-symbolism packaged into palatable doses as "covers" by an astonishing array of artistic talents, including Matt Lesniewski (Crimson Flower), André Lima Araújo (A Righteous Thirst for Vengeance), Malachi Ward & Matt Sheean (Black Hammer Reborn), and, of course, the infamous Shaky Kane (Deadline, 2000 AD).
