Oni Press, the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997, is thrilled to announce the second volume of THE NIGHT MOTHER! Storytellers Jeremy Lambert (Goosebumps) and Alexa Sharpe (Lumberjanes) reunite to weave an evocative and magical tale of a young woman racing against time to restore the souls of the living and bring daylight back to the world. Almost two years after the release of critically acclaimed volume one, the visually stunning series makes its long-awaited return on April 28th, 2026!
The moon is stuck. Sunlight is a distant memory. And the Night Mother, who once represented harmony between the living and the dead, has been thwarted by the girl who lives in the graveyard named Madeline Tock.
But after their daring escape to the Moon, Maddy and her new friend, Nura, have accidentally shattered the Night Mother’s lantern and the stolen souls within it have escaped, including the soul of Maddy’s father. Maddy and Nura follow the souls into the cavernous city spiraling down into the Moon’s largest crater. There, Maddy and Nura will face nightfire, the dreaded Sleep Ensemble, and the many crooked corridors of the Night Mother’s Lunar Mansion. If they survive, they just might be able to right the wrongs of the Night Mother and free the souls she took from the living. But their journey will bring everything to bear on Maddy, who has an impossible choice to make: become the next Night Mother and rescue her father’s soul . . . or stay true to herself and risk everything.
“Volume 2 sees Maddy and Nura facing the many mysteries of the Moon City and the darkest depths of the Night Mother’s Lunar Mansion itself,” said author Jeremy Lambert. “We can’t wait to pull the curtain back even further on this fantasy world and introduce you to all manner of Moonfolk! (Just do us a favor and be particularly careful around the Sleep Ensemble).”
See the light and escape the night with Jeremy Lambert and Alexa Sharpe’s THE NIGHT MOTHER Vol. 2 when it phases into bookstores on April 28th, 2026!
