The third thrilling title in Mark London’s Underworld is coming...EXIT CITY

Mad Cave Studios drops the latest series in Mark London’s Underworld!

Mad Cave Studios is excited to treat fans to a first-look at EXIT CITY… the city of the future!

Featuring interiors by the late artist Karl Mostert (I Am Batman), with Cover A by Karl Mostert with colors by David Baron (Batman); Cover B by Shane Connery Volk (Nottingham, Prairie Gods), and letters by David Sharpe. This third and thrilling title of Mark London’s Underworld interwoven universe invites readers to explore the culmination of a passion for storytelling and the darker side of humanity in this all-new crime series.

In Exit City, there’s a thin line between good and evil, and Detectives McCormick and Miller are about to find out the hard way. When they come to the scene of a brutal accident, it becomes clear that the Major Crimes division was called in for a reason. With minimal evidence, McCormick and Miller must work together through a web of seedy criminals, genetic experiments, and a crooked government. But that’s not the only thing standing in their way, McCormick is hiding a secret that would make anyone question his capabilities.

Writing Exit City was such a wild ride because it allowed me to explore the intricate complexities of human nature and morality,” said series creator and writer Mark London. “Delving into the lives of Detectives McCormick and Miller, I was able to create characters that are deeply flawed yet relatable, each grappling with their own secrets and inner demons. The setting of a gritty, crime-ridden city provided a rich backdrop for tension and conflict, enabling me to weave together a narrative filled with unexpected twists and turns. It was thrilling to craft a plot that kept readers on the edge of their seats while also challenging them to ponder the gray areas between good and evil. Themes of betrayal and loyalty are also on display and they resonated with me on a personal level, allowing for a deeper exploration of trust and the choices we make under pressure. Writing about McCormick’s hidden secret added an extra layer of complexity, making the story not just a crime thriller, but also a psychological journey. Ultimately, Exit City was a labor of love. I truly hope readers find as much enjoyment in unraveling the mysteries within its pages as I did in writing them.”

“Working on Exit City has been a thrilling experience, blending the sharp storytelling of Mark London with the vibrant colors of David Baron,” said Karl Mostert, prior to his passing. “The collaboration with the team at Mad Cave Studios has been both energizing and rewarding, pushing the boundaries of creativity and storytelling. It’s an honor to be part of such a dynamic project that challenges and excites with every page.”

“Exit City has been an incredible journey—each page pulling us into the mystery that is Exit City,” said colorist David Baron. “Collaborating with such a talented team at Mad Cave Studios to bring Mark London and Karl Mostert‘s vision to life has been both inspiring and fulfilling. I hope readers find as much excitement and depth in these pages as I have in coloring them.”

Mark London’s Underworld also includes Revolution 9 (out now) and Hour of the Wolf (Oct. 23). Each miniseries set within can be savored as a standalone serial, while serving as a stepping stone towards Endless Night coming in 2025!

Exit City #1 hits shops Nov. 6th and is currently available for preorder.
