Pallie Paul Allor + Chris Evenhuis explore generational horror in ‘Filthy Lambs’

Mad Cave’s new horror series follows a wealthy family whose fortune is built on a blood-soaked pact with Hell.

Every family has skeletons in the closet, but the Grimaldis keep something much worse in their basement.

Mad Cave Studios has announced Filthy Lambs, a new horror series from writer and letterer Pallie Paul Allor, artist Chris Evenhuis and colorist Sjan Weijers Launching in October, the series blends occult horror, family drama and dark comedy into a story about the hidden cost of inherited wealth.

“Writing Filthy Lambs, I wondered if the woman in the basement could hear the children laughing,” Allor said. “I knew she could smell the candles burning and feel the rope digging into her wrists. But could she hear the children? The birds screeching in the conservatory? Could she hear the family matriarch telling her children that the family is blessed? The family is not blessed. The family is haunted, not by ghosts, but by a contract forged in hell. They’re haunted by every warm and comfortable night they’ve spent in a house splattered by decades of blood.”

Magma Comix + Ruptura Estudios partner on a new comics imprint

Their first title, ‘Hell’s Half Acre,’ arrives in June.

Magma Comix has announced a partnership with Ruptura Estudios, a Mexico-based comics studio, to create a line of comics “with Hispanic appeal” made by international creators.

The new imprint’s first title, Hell’s Half Acre by Magma founder Denton J. Tipton and artist Ramon Bunge, will kick off this summer.

“When Denton shared his plans for Magma Comix, I automatically thought that this was a train I wanted to travel on,” said R.G. Llarena, Ruptura Estudios’ managing partner, and a former editor for Heavy Metal Magazine, where Magma Comix got its start before spinning off as an independent entity. “Sometime later, here we are, embarking on our first journey together. To victory!”

Magma and Ruptura plan to release two other titles this year as well.

“R.G.’s commitment to creator rights has been evident throughout his long career, making Ruptura an ideal partner for Magma,” Tipton said. “Together, we will create captivating story worlds that transport our readers and lure them back time and time again.”
