Oni Press has announced the upcoming special comic Cult of the Lamb: Schism Special #1, bringing readers back into the world of the popular video game. The Schism Special comes to stores October 29, 2025, from writer Alex Paknadel and artist Troy Little.
Here’s the official synopsis:
In the aftermath of their first and closest follower’s sacrifice, Lamb continues the bloody quest to defeat the Bishops of the Old Faith, but they lack the conviction to tend their growing flock back at the cult. More potential followers are rescued by the day, but with no one to indoctrinate them, Lamb’s power stagnates and The One Who Waits becomes weary of his earthly vessel’s resistance to the full power and responsibility of the Red Crown. When famine strikes the cult, a challenger to Lamb’s mantle emerges, and a new struggle begins . . .
As The Lamb wills it, so shall it be done! The epic cycle of sacrifice, death and rebirth spinning out of the worldwide video game blockbuster continues this October in the CULT OF THE LAMB: SCHISM SPECIAL #1 – featuring heretically curated cast of covers by Peach Momoko (Ultimate X-Men) and Troy Little (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas)! This one-shot follows the sensational miniseries CULT OF THE LAMB: THE FIRST VERSE, which was beloved by fans and critics alike.
