Beneath: Political Horror Coming Soon from Mad Cave Studios

PORTLAND, OR — To survive the night, enemies must become allies… Mad Cave Studios is thrilled to announce Beneath—a gritty new horror graphic novel from acclaimed showrunner and filmmaker Steven S. DeKnight (Daredevil, Spartacus, Pacific Rim: Uprising) and celebrated comics artist Michael Gaydos (Alias, Jessica Jones), with letters by Toben Racicot.

Originally released as a Comixology Original, Beneath is a visceral story of survival, suspicion, and the terrifying unknown.

Deputy Sheriff Jess Delgado is tasked with transporting the sole survivor of a mysterious attack along the Texas-Mexico border to CoreCivil, a for-profit immigration detention center closing down due to widespread protests. Housing only a handful of remaining detainees and manned by a skeleton crew of disgruntled guards, the detention center becomes a desperate battleground when something otherworldly emerges from deep below the earth. Something that only fears the light. Deputy Delgado must pull together the guards and detainees—two groups that hate and fear each other—to survive the night. Or fall to the vengeance of the things that live Beneath.

“I could not be more excited for the paperback release of Beneath by our friends at Mad Cave,” said Steven DeKnight. “This is a story with a special place in my heart that unfortunately has once again become all too timely. The fact that I got to bring it to life with artist extraordinaire Michael Gaydos is truly a dream come true.”

“This was my first foray in the horror comic genre and I couldn’t have asked for a better writer and partner than the esteemed Steven S. DeKnight,” said Michael Gaydos. “I am extremely proud of this graphic novel and am so happy that it’s finally coming out in paperback. Many thanks to Mad Cave for making this a reality.”

“Beneath is a hard-hitting thriller with real social relevance,” said Mad Cave Studios editor Sarah Brunstad. “Gaydos brings his usual thoughtfulness and terrific intensity to DeKnight’s script, and the result is a top-notch package. We’re so excited here at Mad Cave to bring the print edition to the world.”

To survive the ultimate horror, they must confront what lurks below the surface. A definite on the pull list for those who love Something is Killing the Children, Infidel, Unearth, and The Walking Dead.

Beneath arrives in comic shops and bookstores on July 15, 2025. Preorder now through your favorite local comic shop or Mad Cave direct!
