The location of Matt Kindt’s imprint Flux House is in flux, as Oni Press has announced they’ve signed a new publishing and media partnership with the creator, to begin in Summer of 2026.
“It’s been more than 20 years since I first committed myself to making comics full-time, and I’ve been lucky enough to work with some of the industry’s brightest creators, editors, and publishers along the way. [Oni Publisher] Hunter Gorinson and I have been working together, swapping ideas, and staffing convention tables together continuously during that time, and something he told me at Baltimore Comic Con many years ago still holds true: ‘I love comics, that’s why I’m here.’ That’s all the more clear from the craft, energy, and care Oni is pouring into its books day in and day out – and what we’re revealing about our plans for Flux House today is just the tip of the iceberg of what we have planned,” said Kindt via press release provided to Comic Book Club. “Similarly, as a native of St. Louis who has lived here for my entire career, it’s no small thing that Dave Steward II and the greater Oni-Lion Forge family have a huge footprint here in the St. Louis area. This city has always been a great haven for writers and artists and, with this partnership, I think we can make it a destination.”
Previously, Flux House books were published through Dark Horse, starting in 2022. And under the new deal, Oni has acquired more than 20 books in the library — though only for media rights, not publishing rights — including, per PR:
- 3 Story: The Secret History of the Giant Man
- Apache Delivery Service (co-created with Tyler Jenkins)
- BANG! (co-created with Wilfredo Torres), Crimson Flower (co-created with Matt Lesniewski)
- Ether (co-created with David Rubín)
- Fear Case (co-created with Tyler Jenkins)
- Gilt Frame (co-created with Margie Kraft Kindt)
- Hairball (co-created with Tyler Jenkins)
- If You Find This, I’m Already Dead (co-created with Dan McDaid)
- Mr. Mammoth (co-created with Jean-Denis Pendanx)
- Poppy & The Lost Lagoon (co-created with Brian Hurtt)
- Red-Handed: The Fine Art of Strange Crimes, Spy Superb (co-created with Sharlene Kindt), Subgenre (co-created with Wilfredo Torres)
- Super Spy
- …and nearly a dozen more.
Development on Flux House properties for film, television, animation, video games, podcast and more (lunchboxes?) will be handled by Oni, with Kindt as producer alongside David Steward II, Hunter Gorinson, and Jeremy Colfer.
“Spanning comics publishing, film and television, gaming, licensing, and more, this newly minted partnership is unprecedented in scope and scale across Oni’s nearly 30-year history,” said David Steward II, Chairman of the Oni-Lion Forge Publishing Group and CEO of Polarity, Oni’s parent company. “Since day one, it has been Oni’s mission to bring the best and most powerful storytellers in comics together, and it’s hard to think of a more heavyweight addition to that roster than Matt Kindt. From seismic comics blockbusters like BRZRKR to seminal, critically acclaimed milestones like Mind MGMT and Dept. H, Matt has forged a unique path as one of the industry’s most multifaceted and expansive creative minds. We’re proud to call Oni the exclusive home for his Flux House banner and are excited to share many more surprises in the months ahead.”
Added Oni Press President & Publisher Hunter Gorinson, “Matt and I have worked together across two decades and four publishing companies, and many of the greatest professional successes I’ve been fortunate enough to celebrate have been built around his contributions in some central way. Matt is a rare breed – a deeply ingenuitive cartoonist who innately understands the comics medium, and a masterclass writer with no shortage of huge, powerful ideas that could power major commercial franchises for years to come. With Flux House now cemented at Oni, we’re going to build on all of Matt’s past accomplishments to bring these two halves of his vast talents together in ways never before attempted – bigger, wilder, and more experimental than ever before.”
Beyond the library of books, there are three new titles already planned through Oni, with artists Brian Hurtt, Jesse Lonergan, and more TBA… Including a new and improved version of the classic Mind MGMT.
Check out all three below, and if you want to know more Kindt will be on hand to discuss the deal during New York Comic-Con at the “Oni Press: The Loudest Thing in Color” panel on Friday, October 10th at 3:30 pm.

FORT PSYCHO #1 (of 12)
Written by Matt Kindt
Art & Cover by Brian Hurtt
Ten years ago, the nation of Singapore sank into the Pacific Ocean. The underground terrorist network known as The Seven Seals took credit for the largest act of terror in human history. In the aftermath, the United Nations created a strike team of highly trained covert operatives with one mission: locate, identify, and eliminate The Seven Seals’ secretive leader.
The team’s clandestine affairs were to always remain in the shadows – until their final, explosive confrontation with The Seven Seals resulted in a large-scale tragedy too bloody to cover up and too tragic to ignore. Disgraced and disavowed by the governments that trained them, the world’s most dangerous secret agents have been convicted for their crimes and sentenced to serve time side-by-side in the one place capable of holding them: their old island headquarters, Fort Cyclone – now known in the media by the derogatory nickname “Fort Psycho.”
And that’s where the official story is about to go terribly, terribly wrong.
From master storytellers Matt Kindt (BRZKR, Mind MGMT) and Brian Hurtt (The Sixth Gun), MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE meets LOST on a tropical island paradise stocked with trained killers, secret betrayals, and the long-buried truth about the mission that brought them there. Always remember: There is nothing deadlier than an ally turned enemy.
