Mad Cave Studios is pulling the curtain back off its brand new series, and we’ve got your exclusive first look. The new four-issue series is titled You’ve Been Cancelled, and features the creative team of writer Curt Pires (Youth, Wyrd), artist Kevin Castaniero (Grit), colorist Jason Wordie (First Knife, Rogues), and letterer Micah Myers. Cancelled is set in the near future and revolves around an entertainment event by the same name, and while those who end up on the show are on the run for their lives, the bounty hunters who are after them are living on the edge as well.

“I’m ecstatic to be bringing You’ve Been Cancelled to life with Kevin, Jason, Micah and our publishing partners at Mad Cave,” said Curt Pires. “This is a book that has hilarity, satire and good old-fashioned ultraviolence in equal measure. Not to mention mind-blowingly beautiful artwork.”

Hopefully you have as much fun reading the book as I did illustrating it!!! Cheers.”
“It’s great to be working with Curt and Kevin,” said colorist Jason Wordie. “I had a blast coloring this book. The writing is great and the artwork is full of energy and detail.”
