Bulletproof Creators Matt Kindt & Brian Hurtt Pull the Pin on the Year’s Most Extreme Action Comic… Packed with Danger, Destruction, and Deranged Covert Operators Trapped Inside an Island Prison That Can Barely Contain Them… Or Their Deadly Secrets
Buckle Up for a 12-Issue Maxi-Series with No Remorse – Beginning in August from Flux House and Oni Press
BUDDA BUDDA BUDDA – WELCOME TO FORT PSYCHO #1, THE COMIC THAT ONLY STOPS TO RELOAD! In advance of the upcoming Comics PRO Comic Book Industry Meeting in Glendale, CA, Oni Press – the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997 – is proud to reveal the first flame-retardant look inside FORT PSYCHO #1 – the next shrapnel-laced series debuting at Oni Press under superstar creator Matt Kindt’s FLUX HOUSE banner! Exploding into comic shops everywhere this August, FORT PSYCHO #1 unites New York Times best-selling writer Matt Kindt (BRZRKR, Mind MGMT) with adrenaline-racing artist Brian Hurtt (The Sixth Gun, Manor Black) for the power-burned first chapter of a Flux House’s 12-issue maxi-series stocked with trained killers, secret betrayals, and the long-buried truth about the mission that brought them to a secret island prison with no hope of escape.
Ten years ago, the nation of Singapore sank into the Pacific Ocean. The underground terrorist network known as The Seven Seals took credit for the largest act of terror in human history. In the aftermath, the United Nations created a strike team of highly trained covert operatives with one mission: locate, identify, and eliminate The Seven Seals’ secretive leader. The team’s clandestine affairs were to always remain in the shadows – until their final, explosive confrontation with The Seven Seals resulted in a large-scale tragedy too bloody to cover up and too tragic to ignore.
Disgraced and disavowed by the governments that trained them, the world’s most dangerous secret agents have been convicted for their crimes and sentenced to serve time side-by-side in the one place capable of holding them: their old island headquarters, Fort Cyclone – now known in the media by the derogatory nickname “Fort Psycho.”
And that’s where the official story is about to go terribly, terribly wrong.
“Without a doubt: FORT PSYCHO is the book to watch in 2026. Imagine a world where, instead of the Charlton superheroes, WATCHMEN was built on a foundation of archetypes culled from G.I. JOE … alongside a dozen other Saturday Morning cartoon series that were pulled off the air for unacceptable levels of violence. Now you’re halfway to understanding a series where flame-throwing levels of action meet precision art and storytelling with the timing of a Swiss watch,” said Hunter Gorinson, Oni Press President & Publisher. “Double agents, deceptive former allies, and the industry’s most dynamic cast of new characters all being pulled into orbit around the penetrating central mystery with globe-spanning consequences… Comics don’t get much more compulsively page-turning than this.”
WARNING: YOU HAVE UNTIL AUGUST 2026 TO REACH MAXIMUM SAFE DISTANCE FROM FORT PSYCHO #1 – the brand-new, ticking time bomb of comic book firepower coming soon from master storytellers Matt Kindt and Brian Hurtt with covers from Hurtt, Lewis LaRosa (Punisher MAX), and more to be revealed soon!
