Coming Soon

The future has grown into a decadent, overcrowded gang-ridden cesspool. If you’re not living uptown, you might as well be dead. Such is the case of Darius Smith, an artistic youth living in the hood, doing his best to avoid trouble and live life. Unfortunately, Darius has a hidden talent — he’s an explosive fighter! This makes him the target of several gangs and pits him in many brawls, landing him in the sight of the honorable Timothy Mustafa, a powerful prince.

XOGENASYS is a successful gladiator sport fought with powered exoskeletons, and as the owner of one of the most successful teams in the country, Mustafa wants Darius to become his newest fighter. Can Darius become the next champion? Or will he fall like so many before him?

"This is an underdog tale, and one that is effectively told; it feels reminiscent of a sports biopic with narrative. Something about the execution of this story feels raw and relatable. It might be the expressiveness in the art, or the way the dialogue matches how real people speak to each other. Regardless, XOGENASYS Volume 1 is a rousingly successful debut for Noir Caesar–I am fully invested for the ride and eagerly awaiting more." — Marion Pena, The Comics Beat

"Draper-Ivey’s artwork gears toward gritty black-and-white with striking action scenes. It’s a slow burn, but readers will easily root for the underdog protagonist as he battles his way out of poverty. Fans of shonen manga will line up for the next volume [of XOGENASYS]." — Publishers Weekly

Mazi’s journey continues as he grapples with public humiliation following a crushing defeat. As he reflects on his past training with the legendary Lao’ahi wrestling family—and his complicated relationship with Lani—Mazi finds himself drawn back into the spotlight. When chaos erupts during a revenge match, Mazi makes a surprise entrance, shifting the tide and aligning with team Fright Night. With the crowd chanting his name and a long-awaited call from IWE's head, Skeamon, Mazi is offered a brutal opportunity that could finally cement his place in the galaxy’s wrestling elite.

After the commotion at the academy left the school in chaos and the prince out of commission, Leticiel is left with more questions than answers. One thing is for certain, though: she does not want to live at the Filiaregis manor anymore, so with the help of the king, she finally gets away from Drossell's horrible family.

Even though Leticiel is much happier than before, she still must contend with a few things that she never had to deal with in her first life: final exams, and the sudden reappearance of beings the populace once believed to be extinct—spirits. Can Leticiel survive her finals and a pair of twin spirits in one piece?

Ai-chan confesses his feelings for Akihiko, but since Akihiko has no interest in anything serious, the best he can offer Ai-chan is a steamy, semi-professional friendship with decidedly unprofessional benefits.
