Oni Press March 2026 Solicitations Highlight Horror, Sci-Fi, and Creator-Driven Worlds

Oni Press’ March 2026 solicitations continue the publisher’s commitment to creator-driven genre work, with horror and science fiction dominating the month. Rather than anchoring the lineup around a single crossover or publishing event, Oni spreads attention across psychological thrillers, anthology horror, speculative sci-fi, and licensed projects. Many of these books share a common interest in control, focusing on institutions, belief systems, and memory as forces that shape identity and behavior.

That theme appears across their new launches, ongoing series, and collected editions. March favors atmosphere and consequence over spectacle, reinforcing Oni Press’ role as a publisher willing to lean into darker emotional territory.

Flux House Debuts with MIND MGMT and Fort Psycho

The MIND MGMT / Fort Psycho FCBD 2026 Special serves as the public debut of Flux House, Matt Kindt’s new imprint at Oni Press. Rather than functioning as a traditional sampler, the Free Comic Book Day release presents two complete short stories that establish tone and intent. The MIND MGMT segment reframes the psychic espionage series through institutional indoctrination, placing the reader inside the logic of the organization rather than positioning them as an outside observer.

The Fort Psycho story shifts sharply toward action, following an elite strike team whose mission spirals out of control. Together, the two pieces establish Flux House as a space for high-concept genre storytelling rooted in paranoia, stress, and psychological fallout rather than clean heroics.

Horror and Cycles of Trauma

Horror remains the most prominent genre in the March lineup. Dead Teenagers #1 launches a five-issue series built around a group of friends trapped in a repeating prom night since the late 1990s. Each cycle ends in death, but the series focuses less on shock and more on emotional stagnation, generational anxiety, and the terror of being unable to move forward.

That fixation on lingering trauma continues in Spirit of the Shadows #3, which follows a protagonist returned from the spirit world. Resurrection comes with consequences, as memory and obligation complicate the boundary between life and death. In Crownsville #5, the series reaches its conclusion by confronting the real-world history of abuse at Maryland’s Crownsville State Hospital, using supernatural horror as a means of reckoning rather than escapism.

EC Comics and Existential Horror

The EC Comics revival remains a defining pillar of Oni Press’ identity. EC Catacomb of Torment #9 delivers another set of morality-driven horror stories while marking Joe R. Lansdale’s first contribution to EC. The anthology format allows the issue to explore cruelty, punishment, and irony in classic EC fashion, updated through modern creative voices.

Science fiction takes center stage in Cruel Universe 2 #8, which continues the anthology’s bleak examination of humanity’s insignificance. The stories emphasize collapse and inevitability rather than adventure. The Cruel Universe Vol. 2 collection reinforces this direction, positioning EC not as nostalgia, but as a contemporary platform for existential genre work.

Fantasy, Science Fiction, and Systems of Power

Fantasy and science fiction titles expand the month’s scope while reinforcing its thematic core. The Autumn Kingdom: The Wraithbound Queen #2 deepens its mythology by separating its central characters and revealing new layers of lineage and consequence. Space Relic Hunters introduces a galaxy shaped by religious suppression, where smuggling forbidden relics becomes an act of resistance rather than profit.

Shin Zero Book 1 reimagines sentai mythology in a world where heroism has lost its cultural value, framing its cast as underpaid survivors navigating a post-icon society. Meanwhile, Live Memorium grounds its cyberpunk premise in grief and emotional dependency, focusing on memory manipulation as a slow erosion of identity rather than a technological marvel.

Licensed Series and Long-Form Collections

Licensed titles provide tonal contrast across the month. Murder Drones #2 continues to balance sci-fi horror with character-driven tension, while Adventure Time #11 maintains its focus on emotional continuity beneath its lighter presentation. Rick and Morty: The End #4 moves closer to its conclusion by shifting attention toward consequence and accountability instead of chaos alone.

Collected editions such as Skin Police Vol. 2, Ogrest Vol. 5, and Wild West C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa support Oni Press’ long-term publishing strategy. These releases keep creator-owned worlds and legacy properties accessible beyond single arcs, reinforcing depth over short-term churn.

Oni Press March 2026 Solicitation Themes

Across genres and formats, Oni Press’ March 2026 lineup reflects a publisher invested in psychological tension, genre experimentation, and stories shaped by systems larger than their characters. Horror dominates, but it does so with intention, focusing on memory, power, and consequence rather than shallow or surface-level shocks.

Since 1997, five friends have been trapped in the ultimate nightmare as a mysterious entity forces them to relive their first prom night over and over again . . . and re-kills them in new and increasingly insane ways each time. They dress up. They party. They make out. And no matter what they try to change, they always die . . . until now.

WHEN YOU’RE A COP IN THE YEAR 2142, YOU CAN’T AFFORD TO TRUST ANYONE . . . NOT YOUR PARTNER, NOT YOUR SPOUSE, NOT EVEN YOURSELF!

From rising star Jordan Thomas (Mugshots) and powerhouse artist Daniel Gete (Biker Mice from Mars), the hyper-kinetic, near-future action epic Skin Police returns in a brand-new volume with a no-holds-barred turning point for a world where morally gray law enforcement, black market illegal cloning, and political strife are about to boil over in a hail of gunfire . . .

Agents Eckis and Sheen swore an oath to protect the civilian population from the eminent danger of the rogue black market clones known as ‘Dupes’ that can suddenly ‘pop’ without any advance warning, which means any passerby on the street or subway could possibly become an unhinged spree killer on a moment’s notice. In return for their service, however, the public has dubbed Eckis, Sheen, and their fellow agents the ‘Skin Police’, an insult handed back by a populace unwilling to sacrifice their own civil rights for the agents’ unprecedented duties in light of the Dupe threat. But what if these illegally manufactured clone doppelgängers weren’t as deadly as initially believed? What if they could be saved? And, as the underground resistance movement supporting them grows, what if their leader proves to be someone uncomfortably familiar to the Skin Police?

An exciting new space opera of blockbuster proportions from the creators of Warship Jolly Roger and On Mars!

After an interplanetary religious war that devastated the galaxy 200 years earlier, four gods nicknamed the ‘Great Quartet’ decided to build a new empire. They established a violent and repressive dictatorship, annihilating all forms of religion other than that devoted to their own worship. The Divine Legions were created to enforce this order, but despite their surveillance, different species of aliens continued to secretly worship their ancient gods. This situation gave rise to a galactic market in alien relics linked to many now-banned religions. That means smuggling and the birth of Relic Hunters. Aspiring up-and-comer Xia, a human, and Little Mercur, a masked alien of unknown origin, are among the best relic hunters in the galaxy, and they’re joined for a new mission by Vitellius, a former centurion who deserted the Divine Legions.

When digital dreams turn into nightmares . . .

Single and awkward, Thomas works as a boring accountant job for a seedy company that makes sex dolls in a gigantic, lonely megalopolis. Manipulated by his crooked boss and ridiculed by his colleagues, when his mother dies, his life turns upside down. Shaken by this tragedy and encouraged by his friend, he decides to test Live Memorium, an illegal technology that offers its users the ability to relive their childhood memories and act differently within them. Once inside the machine, Thomas can see his mother again and change the course of certain events that led to his deep trauma. He becomes more confidence in real life and reconnects with his childhood sweetheart, but in the process, loses touch with reality. It is the beginning of a self-destructive spiral, where the virtual world and the real world become one . . .

A dystopian tale with a cyberpunk flavor, in the tradition of the great seinen sci-fi manga, this captivating story questions our relationship with technology and the solitude and emotional distress of our urbanized society. Halfway between Domu, Akira, and Black Mirror, Live Memorium tells a unique and dizzying tale, illustrated in elegant, Otomo-like lines.

The psychological tension and exploration of trauma in Dead Teenagers and Spirit of the Shadows sound intense, and I like that they’re not just trying to shock you. It feels like the horror has actual weight behind it, and I think that makes it more engaging than the usual gore-for-gore’s-sake stuff. I’m especially curious about Flux House and the MIND MGMT / Fort Psycho FCBD special. Two short stories that set the tone for a whole imprint? That’s ambitious, and it seems like they’re really trying to push boundaries with paranoia and psychological stakes. I appreciate when comics challenge me rather than just entertain me. Oni Press seems to be balancing that with some licensed titles too, so you get darker works and lighter, familiar stories all in the same month. I’m honestly excited to see how these all come together.

EC Comics returning with new stories, including Joe R. Lansdale’s debut, is awesome. Those morality-driven horror tales are something I grew up on, and seeing them updated feels like a bridge between classic and modern storytelling. Then you have Shin Zero, which sounds like it’s flipping the whole hero concept on its head, and Space Relic Hunters exploring religious suppression and rebellion. I feel like Oni Press is trying to appeal to readers who want substance and ideas, not just fun adventures. The collected editions like Skin Police Vol. 2 and Cruel Universe Vol. 2 also show they’re thinking long-term, which is great for people who want to follow a story from start to finish without missing context.

I can’t wait for the Cult of the Lamb: Last Sacrament Special. The setup with Lamb dealing with betrayal and the remaining threats of the Old Faith sounds epic. I like stories where characters face real consequences and have to make hard choices. It’s more interesting than a story where everything resets every issue. Oni Press seems to really lean into consequence and memory as part of their storytelling. Even Adventure Time #11 and Rick and Morty: The End #4 are exploring emotional continuity and accountability, which is kind of surprising for what you’d expect to be light or chaotic comics. It feels like they trust readers to notice those details and care about them. That’s rare and kind of refreshin

I’m a huge fan of Matt Kindt, so the launch of Flux House with MIND MGMT and Fort Psycho is the main thing I’m waiting for. I like that the FCBD special isn’t just a teaser but gives full stories to establish tone. The focus on paranoia, stress, and psychological fallout is exactly what I expect from his work. I also think it’s smart to combine that with action-heavy storytelling in Fort Psycho to give contrast. It’s clear Oni Press is trying to define an imprint that’s different from standard superhero or mainstream comics, and I’m excited to see it grow over the next year. I’ll definitely be picking this up on Free Comic Book Day.

The horror themes Oni Press is focusing on this month feel very personal. Dead Teenagers, Spirit of the Shadows, and Crownsville are all about lingering trauma, obligations, and memory. That’s way more relatable than typical horror where the threat is purely external. I like that they explore real consequences for the characters, even in fantasy or supernatural settings. It makes the stories feel meaningful. Even the sci-fi, like Live Memorium, seems to explore psychological depth and emotional consequences in a tech-heavy world. This kind of thematic consistency across genres is what makes me interested in the publisher.
