Writer: Marco Vito Oddo Artist: Victor Costa Mother’s Touch Studios, April 2026 Written by Marco Vito Oddo with art by Victor Costa, Otherkin follows Alex, a seemingly nondescript individual with access to magic and the ability to transform into different forms. Here is the promotional copy from the Kickstarter site: What if there is a reason we fear the dark? What if the shadows do indeed shelter evil forces? What if there’s more to life than the soul-crushing weight of the mundane? These questions led Alex to answers they never expected to find. Now, forever changed, they hunt for an evil that chose London as its nest. Alone, clueless, and way in over their head, Alex must figure out how to make amends for their past mistakes, using their unlikely abilities to make a difference. Otherkin is a comic book series filled with mystery, written by Marco Vito Oddo and illustrated by Victor Costa.
