Forever Home #1 | Christian Ward & Sami Kivelä | Oni Press Fantasy Series

Forever Home #1 is the debut issue of the new Oni Press fantasy series from Christian Ward and Sami Kivelä, releasing September 9, 2026, with cover art by Christian Ward and multiple variants including foil and 1:10 limited editions.

Quick Facts:

• Title: Forever Home #1
• Publisher: Oni Press
• Creators: Christian Ward & Sami Kivelä
• Cover: Christian Ward
• Format: Single issue, first issue of a new series
• Release Date: September 9, 2026
• Variants: Multiple covers, including foil and 1:10 incentive editions

Why collectors want this issue:

• Christian Ward is one of the most distinctive cover artists in comics — his Eisner-winning psychedelic color work (Invisible Kingdom, Batman: City of Madness) makes his #1s shelf standouts
• Sami Kivelä's interiors (Abbott, Machine Gun Wizards) have built a steady critical following
• Oni Press #1s print small relative to demand — recent Oni launches have gone to multiple printings fast
• The foil edition gives this launch a premium chase without incentive-ratio pricing

Is this a good jumping-on point? Yes — brand-new creator-owned #1, no prior reading. If you like richly built fantasy worlds in the vein of Ward's Invisible Kingdom, this is the entry.
