Oni Press Proudly Presents a Wrathful Turning Point in the Alex Paknadel and Troy Little’s CULT OF THE LAMB Saga in an Epic New Special!
UNBELIEVERS, SHIELD THINE EYES! In partnership with Massive Monster and Devolver Digital, Oni Press, the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997 – is proud to the CULT OF THE LAMB: LAST SACRAMENT SPECIAL #1 – a stunning, 48-page special from writer Alex Paknadel (Cyclops) and Eisner Award-nominated artist Troy Little (Rick and Morty vs. Cthulhu) continuing the best-selling, critically acclaimed expansion of the global video game phenomenon in comic shops on March 4th!
Following the events of CULT OF THE LAMB: THE FIRST VERSE and October’s CULT OF THE LAMB: SCHISM SPECIAL #1, the cult is decimated and its faith shaken in the wake of a shocking and bloody betrayal. Power, duty, and determination will all be tested as Lamb must reckon with the remaining threats of the Old Faith. Meanwhile, Ratau—still firm in his faith in the Red Crown—tries to protect and guide Lamb’s remaining followers and undermine the blasphemy of the rival camp. As The One Who Waits prepares their return, great sacrifices must be weighed for the future of the Cult of the Lamb.
Arriving March 2026, the latest edition features covers from Troy Little (Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas: The Graphic Novel) and Rian Gonzales (Magic The Gathering). This one-shot follows this year’s CULT OF THE LAMB: SCHISM SPECIAL #1 and the beloved CULT OF THE LAMB: THE FIRST VERSE.

PRAISE FOR CULT OF THE LAMB: THE FIRST VERSE:
“Troy Little’s excellent cartooning is busy, detailed and creative in following Paknadel’s inventive path, and the lamb’s visual transformation from sympathetic innocent to monster is well achieved.” —SLINGS AND ARROWS
“Genuinely one of the most fun comics I’ve read all year… Cult of the Lamb perfectly captures the game’s charm, humor, and surprising darkness while expanding the world in meaningful ways. … One of the best video game comic adaptations in recent memory, expanding the game’s world and story without losing the original essence.” —GONKBONK
“Cult of the Lamb really is the best damn fantasy story this side of a Conan anthology…” –AIPT
“Cult of the Lamb is on its way to be one of the best comic book adaptations of a beloved video game in a while. The love Paknadel and Little have for the source material is evident. If you love the game, then this is an opportunity to spend even more time within its world. If you’re new to it, then you have a unique folk horror comic to get into. Regardless of your point of entry, you’ll want to be indoctrinated by the great Lamb to be among his devout followers.” —THE BEAT
“The comic succeeds largely by understanding the relative strengths of the video game but not recreating it beat for beat, which ultimately provides fans something they can enjoy even as the comic stands on its own two feet…” —COMICBOOK.COM
“Just when I thought I couldn’t get more invested in the adorably bloody roguelike world of Cult of the Lamb, developer Devolver Digital teamed up with comic book publisher Oni Press to launch a new comic series, Cult of the Lamb: The First Verse, written by Alex Paknadel and drawn by Troy Little. As someone who has only just begun their descent into a cult (thanks to some very enthusiastic pestering from a friend), this comic series looks like a brilliant way to get to know all the creatures that I’ll eventually encounter in Cult of the Lamb.” —PC GAMER
“Stylish.” —IGN
“The official graphic novel, crafted by talented creators Alex Paknadel and Troy Little, promises to enrich the game’s lore and appeal to both existing fans and newcomers.” —80 LEVEL
