Think You Can Outsmart Death? THE PALE KNIGHT Coming Soon From Mad Cave Studios
Think you can outsmart death?
Mad Cave Studios invites you to get ready for a hauntingly complex ride with THE PALE KNIGHT, the all-new six-issue miniseries that plunges readers deep into the deadly world of the Black Death, where the lines between life, death, and morality blur in the most chilling way!
Written by the acclaimed writer Peter Milligan (Enigma, Shade the Changing, XStatix) with illustrations by Val Rodrigues (Deep Roots, Unnatural Order), The Pale Knight features colors by Cristiane Peter and letters by Dave Sharpe, with Cover A by Nick Marinkovich and Cover B by Guiseppe Camuncoli.
England, 1349. Sir Hugh de Grey, the Pale Knight, returns from war to find a land ravaged by the Black Death, and his son dying of the plague. When he prays to God to save his son’s life, it is not God who answers—but Death himself. And Death is willing to cut a deal.
“The Pale Knight has a particular, terrible resonance, set as it is in a world suffering from an even deadlier plague that decimated populations in the 1340s,” said Peter Milligan. “This book blends my love for Bergman’s iconic The Seventh Seal with my fascination for the Black Death to craft a horror story that feels both timeless and disturbingly modern. Val Rodrigues’s stunning art brings this apocalyptic world to life in a way that perfectly captures the moral torment and supernatural horrors of this tale.”
This thrilling supernatural horror series promises to keep you questioning your limits of love and sacrifice. For fans of the thought-provoking, surreal horror and the dark, atmospheric storytelling of Season of the Witch, The Pale Knight #1 will be available in shops on May 28th.
