The New OGN by Amphibia’s Matt Braly & Ainsworth Lin Arrives June 2025
Skybound Comet and Image Comics revealed a first look at interior pages from Family Force V, the prismatic YA graphic novel about your new favorite alien fighting family by Matt Braly (Disney’s Amphibia) and artist Ainsworth Lin.
Family Force V will be available everywhere books are sold in June 2025 from Skybound Comet, the original graphic novel imprint aimed at Young Adult (Ages 12+) and Middle Grade (Ages 8-12) audiences, but sure to captivate readers of all ages. Full of action and charm, Family Force V promises to be your next graphic novel obsession.
“Matt Braly and Ainsworth Lin’s graphic novel debut is absolutely electrifying,” said Alex Antone, Editorial Director at Skybound. “And while this book may look like an action-packed blockbuster (and it is) — it’s the quieter moments with Moon Trooper Maise that’ll have you begging for more.”
Fighting alien kaiju with your family on a Friday night is a totally normal part of being a teenager…right? Well, it is for Maise who, despite her protests, must continue the family legacy of keeping the world safe, all while trying to get good grades, impress her crush, and balance extracurriculars. But when tragedy strikes, Maise is forced to figure out how to be herself when she feels destined to be someone else for not only her family, but the world.
The Skybound Comet slate also includes the upcoming release of Clementine Book Three (ISBN: 978-1-5343-9737-8 | SRP $14.99), the highly anticipated and heart-wrenching finale of the Eisner-Award nominated YA trilogy by Tillie Walden (On a Sunbeam, Spinning), coming in June 2025; TRANSFORMERS: Worst Bot Ever: Meet Ballpoint (ISBN: 978-1-5343-2799-3 | SRP $12.99), the start of a new OGN series about the misadventures of the bot who is mightier than the sword by Brian “Smitty” Smith (Pea, Bee, and Jay) and Marz Jr. (Void Rivals cover artist), available July 2025 for Middle Grade Readers; and Pizza Witch (ISBN: 978-1-5343-2796-2 | SRP $16.99), the graphic novel that cooks up a delicious world of magic for a wide range of readers by Sarah Graley (Glitch, Our Super Adventure) and Stef Purenins (Our Super Adventure), coming in September 2025.
