COMING SOON: 'Edenfrost' #1 by Amit Tishler, Bruno Frenda, and Taylor Esposito

 In a harrowing journey through war-torn Ukraine in the Russian Civil War, comes a new historical fantasy series from Amit Tishler and Bruno Frenda


Mad Cave Studios is excited to announce Edenfrost, the forthcoming Historical Fiction/Fantasy series written by Amit Tishler (Animals, Mr. Pickles), with art and colors by Bruno Frenda (Heavy Metal, Carnivalia), and letters by Ringo Award-winning Taylor Esposito.

After losing their parents in a pogrom, teenage siblings Alex and Yuli use the mystical power of a Golem to survive the chaos of the Russian Civil War. In a harrowing journey through war-torn Ukraine, the duo will face the harsh reality of warfare, ethnic bias, and national pride as they fight for their own place in the world.

Edenfrost is a deeply personal and pertinent story, born from an amalgamation of my own philosophies, interests, family history, and artistic passions,” said Amit Tishler. “I wanted to create an epic journey that's exciting and entertaining but also delivers a nuanced and insightful message about the concept of identity. Utilizing my lifelong interest in history, I infused fantastical elements into a historically authentic setting, throwing my young, wide-eyed protagonists straight into its deep, dark waters. I want readers to experience this chaotic chapter of human history through Alex and Yuli’s eyes and understand their story’s relevance to our world today. But more than anything, I want everyone to enjoy the mystery, tension, and thrilling action that this emotional rollercoaster has to offer, and I can’t wait for you to read it."

Edenfrost is a project to which I am particularly committed, as it is the first time as an artist that I have been entrusted with a complete miniseries, and in this particular case, I also had the opportunity to challenge myself as a complete artist, processing the pages from the layouts down to the colors.  Amit won me over immediately when he showed me the prologue, and I can say that Edenfrost is a captivating and action-packed work, I hope it can impress you as much as it did with me!”

Born and raised in Tel Aviv, Israel, Amit Tishler is known for his work on projects for Cartoon Network, HBO, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, and more. Edenfrost and the other stories he's producing for Mad Cave Studios aim to inspire audiences and challenge their notions of morality, loyalty, and personal identity through powerful themes, emotionally complex characters, and biting social and political commentary.

This is the first series released in the Mad Cave Studios partnership with Amit Tishler. Edenfrost (1 of 4) is slated for release in November 2023. Cover B by Christopher Mitten (Hellboy).
