PRESS RELEASE
Living the Line Books and Diamond Book Distributors are proud to announce that Moonray, the ongoing science fantasy graphic novel epic, is now a multiplayer arena combat game as well, now available on the Epic Games platform.
In a post-human world, the man of miium is born. Created to avenge a slain goddess, our nameless warrior travels an unrecognizable landscape, constantly evolving with new wonders and terrors: Zanikam pirates, deadly reflections, a living bridge, and a red tear in the sky. Written and drawn by Eisner-award-winning author and artist Brandon Graham (Prophet, King City, Rain Like Hammers) and featuring artist Xurxo G. Penalta, Moonray presents a mind-altering new dawn for a distant sci-fi future unlike any other.
The first installment of Moonray, the lavishly-produced hardback series from Living the Line, went on sale in October 2023. Moonray Book Two, Echoes of Ascension, hit bookstores and comic shops earlier in July.
Moonray is a daring experiment in world-building, a true graphic epic that began in a truly unusual way. Moonray the graphic novel series shares its name and characters with a surreal 3rd-person multiplayer battle arena game set in a fantastical sci-fi world. Featuring intense combat, stunning visuals, and a world-class soundtrack, Moonray the game has been in development by the independent game developers Moonray PBC since 2019. And the long wait for its release is finally over!
The ongoing Moonray GN series, helmed by the decorated Graham, parallels Graham’s earlier Prophet series in its sprawling world-building, unparalleled sense of scale, and an action-adventure shell masking deep philosophical questions at its core. The series is currently planned to continue to a full four 160-page books, with a collaborative team on book three (for summer 2025), and Graham on the majority of art for book four (planned for winter 2025/2026).
