Alien Fighters: A New Team Debuts in FAMILY…

Dream Team: Braly and Lin Unite

Fresh off the animated success of Disney’s Amphibia, creator Matt Braly has a new venture on the horizon. Teaming up with artist Ainsworth Lin, he’s diving into the graphic novel waters. Together, they are set to uncover Family Force V, a dazzling YA graphic novel about a family facing cosmic adversaries. This vibrant creation is slated to debut in June 2025, brought to life by Skybound Comet.

Earlier today, fans got a glimpse of the stunning interior art. The graphic novel explores themes that will resonate with young adults but is primed to captivate readers of any age. Expect action, charm, and a healthy dose of family dynamics.

A Tale of Teen Spirit and Alien Battles

The narrative centers on Maise, a teenager juggling high school drama with a surreal family legacy. Fighting colossal alien kaiju is all in a Friday night’s work. Despite her protests, Maise’s destiny is entwined with defending Earth—a balancing act as she navigates academics and crushes. But when tragedy strikes, Maise must find her voice amid a cacophony of familial expectations.

Alex Antone, Editorial Director at Skybound, praised the novel, stating, "It’s the quieter moments with Moon Trooper Maise that’ll have you begging for more." It’s clear Family Force V balances pulse-pounding action with poignant character moments.

Expanding the Skybound Universe

Family Force V isn’t the only thrilling tale from Skybound Comet. Also on their slate is Clementine Book Three, ready to tug at heartstrings in June 2025, concluding the Eisner-award-nominated YA trilogy by Tillie Walden. Then, TRANSFORMERS: Worst Bot Ever: Meet Ballpoint introduces readers to a misfit bot with a pen as mighty as any sword. Additionally, Pizza Witch promises to enchant with a mouthwatering world of magic in September 2025.

Each of these releases illustrates Skybound Comet’s commitment to crafting imaginative stories for varied audiences. They’re creating a universe where youthful escapades and cosmic adventures feel right at home.
