A Critically Acclaimed Sci-Fi Anthology Where Survival, Identity, and Existential Dread Collide… And Every Ending Is Just the Beginning!
Six extraordinary journeys… Into the unknown!
This January, Mad Cave Studios presents Vanishing Point Vol. 1, the celebrated sci-fi collection from Eisner, GLAAD, and Ringo Award-winning writer Mark Russell (The Flintstones, Not All Robots, Superman: Space Age), delivering six standalone stories that confront survival, autonomy, and humanity’s most uncomfortable questions.
Each issue contains work by a different artist in this dynamic collection, including Juan Doe (Wolverines), Ryan Alexander-Tanner (The Nib, The Washington Post, New York Times), Alberto Ponticelli (Frankenstein, Agent of S.H.A.D.E.), and Jok (The Body Trade), plus colors by Sidney Davidson and Ellie Wright, and letters by Carlos M. Mangual and more. Vanishing Point showcases an anthology of darkly satirical, thought-provoking tales of survival, identity, and the moral dilemmas that define us.
From the minds of Eisner Award-winning writer Mark Russell and artist Ryan Alexander-Tanner, Vanishing Point is where sci-fi meets existential dread. These short stories don’t end with a twist—they begin there. Each revelation cracks open something deeper, asking the questions we try not to face… what does it mean to be alive? In Screams, a seasoned mining ship captain embarks on a ten-year solo mission to space where he makes a horrifying discovery. The Tomorrow Family is a dark reimagining of the cartoon family of tomorrow, living in a future that might have been. In Cell Structure, a floating research station performs horrifying experiments on alien prisoners to discover the common elements all living things. In Proof of Life, a robot is put on trial for the ultimate offense of being alive. In Grave Remedies, a futuristic health clinic keeps patients alive against their will. But why? And in The Mission, a genocidal visitor arrives on Earth with a mission of mass extermination and a secret that could change everything. This volume collects all six issues of the critically acclaimed series.
For readers drawn to the harrowing worlds of Black Mirror, The Twilight Zone, and Love, Death + Robots, Vanishing Point Vol. 1 is essential reading—landing in comic shops and bookstores January 20, 2026.
