First Look: Worship At The Feet Of The Cult Of The Lamb: Schism Special #1!

GATHER YOUR FOLLOWERS AND DELIVER THE SERMON!

Oni Press, the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997, in partnership with Massive Monster and Devolver Digital, are fiendishly joyful to honor the devoted with a first look at the glorious return of the global video game phenomenon that inspired one of the year’s biggest comics hits in the CULT OF THE LAMB: SCHISM SPECIAL #1 – coming to comic shops everywhere October 29th! In the cataclysmic wake of CULT OF THE LAMB: THE FIRST VERSE… For those who patiently waited and praised the Lamb, the record-setting comic book expansion of CULT OF THE LAMB returns in a powerful new, 48-page special from acclaimed writer Alex Paknadel (Astonishing X-Men) and Eisner Award-nominated artist Troy Little (Rick and Morty vs. Dungeons & Dragons)!

In the aftermath of their first and closest follower’s sacrifice, Lamb continues their bloody quest to defeat the Bishops of the Old Faith, but they lack the conviction to tend to their growing flock back at the cult. More potential followers are rescued by the day, but with no one to indoctrinate them, Lamb’s power stagnates and The One Who Waits becomes weary of his earthly vessel’s resistance to the full power and responsibility of the Red Crown. When famine strikes the cult, a challenger to Lamb’s mantle emerges, and a new struggle begins . . .

Non-believers will be re-educated with CULT OF THE LAMB: SCHISM SPECIAL #1, arriving this October! The latest edition features covers from the devoted Peach Momoko (Ultimate X-Men) and Troy Little (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas)! This one-shot follows the sensational miniseries CULT OF THE LAMB: THE FIRST VERSE, which was beloved by fans and critics alike.
