MILWAUKIE, Ore. — Dark Horse and Tiny Onion present The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos: Children of the Night, a new story arc in the hit LGBTQ+ horror-hero coming-of-age series from New York Times bestselling and multi-Eisner Award-winning writers James Tynion IV (Something is Killing the Children, The Nice House by the Sea) and Tate Brombal (House of Slaughter, Batgirl) and illustrator Isaac Goodhart (The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos, Constantine: Distorted Illusions). Miquel Muerto (Something is Killing the Children, Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance) and Aditya Bidikar (Dawnrunner, Blue Book) also return to the series as colorist and letterer, respectively.

Issue #1 will feature four covers with art by Noah Dao, Gabriel Hernández Walta, Michael Dialynas, and Sweeney Boo.

In The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos: Children of the Night, a new school year begins for Christopher Chaos and his friends as he finds himself divided from his mentor, Adam Frankenstein, and searching for answers outside of any textbook. But when a dangerous new monster arrives in New Briar City with a mysterious hunter on his trail, a strange case develops that only Christopher can solve! Will the Monster Club survive their latest foe, or will they be torn apart–piece by bloody piece? This issue introduces the Chaosverse’s Dr. Henry Jekyll and a brand-new monster hunter known only as Helbound!

“Witnessing Christopher’s story resonate with so many people has been a highlight of my career, and it feels so good to be back!” said Brombal. “Prepare to meet Dr. Jekyll like you’ve never seen him before, as he flips the script and unleashes all kinds of chaos in Christopher’s world. Now is the best time to jump aboard The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos because, believe me, we are just getting started.”

“It is extremely good to be back on Christopher Chaos as our story continues to unfold!” added Goodhart. “With this new story we’re going even bigger with higher stakes, a larger cast, and more heart. We’re really swinging for the fences now and I can’t wait for readers to see what we’ve been cooking up!”

The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos: Children of the Night is perfect for new and established readers alike. Issue #1 (of 4) arrives in comic shops on June 18, 2025 and is now available for pre-order from your local comic shop for $4.99.

The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos Volume 1 is now available wherever books are sold with Volume 2 arriving June 2025.

Praise for The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos:

“The first issue is a perfect setup for a horror comic that struggles with the loneliness of feeling like an outsider.”—Fangoria

“Full of detail, life, death, and, at times, whimsy. It’s a book about growing up, taking chances, love, loss, mortality, and morality.”—The Convention Collective

“Simply put, this is the type of book that will remind you why you check out new monthly comics. The idea is clever and odd, the execution equally so, and the visuals fantastic, with clean and polished linework complimented perfectly by the letters and colors.”—Comics Beat

“The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos #1 stands tall as an engaging opening to a story rife with whimsy and charm. It contains enough narrative richness within its moments of open table setting to act as both an excellent standalone tale, as well as the first chapter in an expectedly great series.”—Comic Watch

“The weird mixture of horror, science fiction, and coming-of-age drama somehow works together beautifully. The horror elements are genuinely scary, the science fiction elements are interesting and thought-provoking, and the coming-of-age drama is touching and relatable.”—Capes & Tights
