From the World of Minor Threats: The Brood

Illustrated by I.N.J. Culbard
A graphic novel tie-in to the hit Minor Threats comics series that’s Succession with supervillains, written by Patton Oswalt, Heath Corson, and Jordan Blum and drawn by I.N.J. Culbard!

From the world of the hit Minor Threats series comes a family drama starring the planet's most feared villains.

Napoleon Archimedes is the archnemesis of The Searcher, and he’s fought her to a standstill for over four decades in the futuristic metropolis of Meteor Falls. But now, as he confronts his mortality, he’s forced to name a successor from his three extraordinary children: Athena, Benjamin, and Spookshow. Each brilliant, cunning...and unlucky enough to be the child of the world’s greatest supervillain.

See, Napoleon believed he was smart enough to have it all: Raise a family AND conquer the world. Then he thought: Why not combine them? Take the kids on as partners. Create a dynasty...

None of it went according to plan. Who will rise above the betrayal, failure, and dysfunction to seize the family business?

Join us for an unlikely coming-of-age story, that wrestles with the concussions and repercussions of getting raised by a once-in-a-generation criminal mind. Think your father is manipulative, cold and demanding...? Wait until you meet Napoleon.
