CULT OF THE LAMB TP VOL 01 - THE FIRST VERSE
(W) Alex Paknadel (A/CA) Troy Little
In partnership with Devolver Digital and Massive Monster, Oni Press proudly presents Cult of the Lamb: The First Verse-the hugely anticipated first official graphic novel exploration into the sprawling cosmology of the millions-selling, multiple BAFTA Award-nominated video game phenomenon that has Polygon begging players to “smash that worship button”!
In a land pervaded by cruelty and evil, the most innocent among us-young Lamb-was selected to become a noble sacrifice… His death would be the magical rite that would forever seal the darkest of the Old Gods out of our realm and usher in a new age of bounty. So Lamb died… but then he made a deal of his own. At the crossroads of eternity, Lamb was met by the imprisoned deity known as the One Who Waits, who revealed the falsehoods and distortions of the false prophets who rule the world and the Old Faith. And so, Lamb was given a choice: Enter oblivion as intended… or return to the land of living with unholy powers and deliver a new cult unto the Earth. The Four Bishops of the Old Faith must fall. The disbelievers must be destroyed. And, as Lamb assembles his flock, a new master shall reign over all of creation. Praise be to the Cult of the Lamb!
From acclaimed writer Alex Paknadel (All Against All, Red Goblin) and Eisner Award-nominated artist Troy Little (Rick and Morty vs. Dungeons & Dragons, Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas) comes a deviously delightful, heretic-smashing excursion into the borderlands of the worldwide video game hit that IGN calls “adorably demonic.”
Collects Cult of the Lamb (2024) #1-4.

They arrive expecting the unexpected, and the Unbeing delivers. The expedition discovers a massive, entirely novel, giant holobiont that threatens to upend everything they understand about the natural world.
Propelled by hubris and the intoxicating charm of forbidden knowledge, the research team descends into a hostile alien environment allowed to thrive without human interference. The beautiful yet unforgiving landscape hosts strange flora, gorgeous fauna and dangerous predators lurking in the darkness. As the team pushes deeper, can they survive long enough to find what they’re looking for?
