From the Acclaimed Cartoonist of BENEATH THE TREES WHERE NOBODY SEES, a Brutal New Vision of Capitalism by Combat

PORTLAND, OR (January 22nd, 2025) – IN THIS FUTURE, MONEY ISN’T EVERYTHING – IT’S THE ONLY THING. Oni Press, the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997, is proud to unveil FREE FOR ALL #1 by Eisner Award-nominated cartoonist Patrick Horvath (Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees) – a gory and gripping 56-page one-shot graphic novella coming to comic shops everywhere in March 2025! From the creator of the sold-out BENEATH THE TREES WHERE NOBODY SEES – which earned a 2024 Eisner Award nomination for “Best New Series” – Horvath’s FREE FOR ALL #1 introduces a brave new world where greed and glory have become inextricably linked in a spectacularly brutal game that has enraptured millions around the globe…

In the future, the World Finance League exists to benefit all, randomly choosing those from among the billionaires and trillionaires of the world and presenting them with a choice: either donate half of their assets to the common good — or defend them in ritual combat.

Reigning champion and real estate magnate Ted Brooks has 22 victories under his belt — defending the wealth he schemed and stabbed to get — when he is forced to face his ex-wife, Luella Dominguez, in a fight to the death. Luella has been training, waiting for this moment. But will she have what it takes to defeat the man who would do anything — absolutely anything — to keep his fortune?
