SDCC 2026: Matt Kindt’s FLUX HOUSE PRESENTS #1 A New Kind of Quarterly Comics Experience Coming in October

From Oni Press and Flux House, New Comics Showcase to Features 64 Pages of Awe & Mystery from Superstar Cartoonist Alongside Legendary Artists Brian Hurtt (The Sixth Gun), David Lapham (Stray Bullets), Alison Sampson (Department of Truth) & More


In advance of Comic-Con International in San Diego, Oni Press – the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997 – is proud to reveal FLUX HOUSE PRESENTS #1, a tense and turbulent spectacle of mind-bending comics storytelling from the prehistoric age through many dimensions beyond our own in a truly one-of-kind quarterly comics showcase torn from the imagination of New York Times bestselling writer and multiple Eisner Award nominee Matt Kindt (BRZRKR, Mind MGMT)! 
​
Packed with first appearances, shocking self-contained introductions to major upcoming Flux House releases, and awe-inspiring surprises, join one of the medium’s most widely acclaimed creative minds—alongside longtime collaborators Brian Hurtt (Fort Psycho), David Lapham (Stray Bullets), Alison Sampson (Department of Truth) and Ella Kindt (making her interior comic book colors debut)—for 64 pages of wildly unexpected and wholly unpredictable stories that will tattoo themselves onto your psyche in brilliant CMYK ink in FLUX HOUSE PRESENTS #1 in October.
 
First: Enter the age of wonder and survival in the double-sized first chapter of new two-part tale, “SPARK,” as a young woman and her hunter-gatherer community set out to withstand the change of seasons and, with it, harness newfound tools to stave death off for one more cycle of the stars . . . Then: Kindt and Lapham present the key to “ROOM 101”—a seemingly derelict motel room that also possesses endless doorways to the crossroads of all time and space. And for the gargantuan finale: A brand-new tale of shrapnel and stamina, exploding out of the pages of FORT PSYCHO—Kindt and Hurtt’s mayhem-infused, super-spy epic.

Each triple-sized issue of FLUX HOUSE PRESENTS will be released quarterly – four times per year – in between story arcs of the ongoing MIND MGMT: NEW & IMPROVED series, written and drawn by Kindt.

“I really miss the weird anthology. From the classic DHP to the one-man show of Eightball, Negative Burn and Taboo,” said Matt Kindt. “I want to channel that weird unexpected fun on every page with pulp and horror and sci-fi. I want to bring back short form comics — where even a 2-page story can change your life. And give creators a chance to play and experiment.”

“It has been such a joy to play in Matt Kindt’s Flux House sandbox–the unforgettable MIND MGMT: NEW & IMPROVED, the recently launched action packed thriller of the season FORT PSYCHO and now the anthology FLUX HOUSE PRESENTS which showcases the breadth of his storytelling powers alongside some of the most imaginative artists in comics,” said Sierra Hahn, Oni Press Editor in Chief. “There’s mystery, adventure, and plenty of mind-bending intrigue!”

You’re not dreaming. FLUX HOUSE PRESENTS #1 is real … and you can see it for yourself in comic stores worldwide on October 7th with dazzling covers by Sharlene Kindt (Dept. H)​ and Emma Rios (Pretty Deadly)! 

Plus: Journey into the year’s most exciting new comic initiative for yourself live at San Diego Comic-Con 2026 on Saturday, June 25th at 1 pm PT in Room 5AB for the “Inside FLUX HOUSE with Matt Kindt and Brian Hurtt” panel presentation! Welcome to FLUX HOUSE – the first and only comics imprint designed to conjoin directly with your nervous system to deliver controlled bursts of paranoia, anxiety, and adrenaline.

For longer than they can remember, these child vampires have lived a life of eternal wonder amongst the ruins of humanity.

Mind-bending sci-fi collides with Cold War thriller in this six-issue miniseries by the bestselling and Eisner-winning creative team behind GIDEON FALLS! PRIMORDIAL #1 Writer: Jeff Lemire Artist: Andrea Sorrentino, Dave Stewart Letterer: Steve Wands Publisher: Image Comics Release Date: September 15, 2021 Cover Price: $3.99 In 1957, the USSR launched the dog, Laika, into Earth's orbit. Two years later, the USA responded with two monkeys, Able and Baker. These animals never returned. But, unbeknownst to everyone, they did not die in orbit...they were taken. And now they are coming home. Score:  ★★★★1/2 (4.5/5) Few things can pique the interest of a comic book reader like a good ole conspiracy thriller. The latest example is the excellent new series from James Tynion IV and Martin Simmonds entitled 'The Department of Truth' that's been a bestseller for Image Comics. It proposes conspiracy theories can be all-too-real and for Jeff Lemire, Andrea Sorrentino, and Dave St...
