Written by Tynion (Something is Killing the Children, The Nice House by the Sea) and Brombal (House of Slaughter, Batgirl), illustrated by Goodhart (Batgirl, Constantine: Distorted Illusions), colored by Miquel Muerto (Something is Killing the Children, Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance), and lettered by Aditya Bidikar (Dawnrunner, Blue Book), The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos Library Edition collects volumes 1 and 2 of the critically acclaimed series, the prologue comic (previously collected in The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos Volume 1), and The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos Halloween Special for the first time.
Meet teenage mad scientist Christopher Chaos. For all his life, he knew he was different. His brilliant mind works in ways that defy logic and enable him to do things that push him beyond his peers. Unfortunately, these abilities have also caused great pain in his personal life–leading others to fear him and leaving Christopher with profound loneliness and guilt. Then, one day, something cracked. When the cute boy at high school turns out to be a deadly creature, Christopher finds himself in a world of
monsters, heroes, and a cult of hunters out to kill them all.
As Christopher discovers the history of Monsterkind, he learns that he isn’t so alone in the world after all. As he makes friends and enemies, he uncovers secrets that lead him deeper into his own unknown past—secrets that keep the mad scientist inside of him questioning everything!
The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos Library Edition Volume 1 will be available in bookstores and comic shops on March 10 and 11, 2026. It is now available for pre-order at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and your local comic shop or bookstore for $59.99.
