About

When the hero continues on their quest, the vanquished dust themselves off and get ready for work the next day. Hero Cave is a dungeon fantasy comic book for the rats, skeletons, and low-level monsters of the underworld.

Skeleton has a pretty easy gig: scare the adventurers that visit Hero Cave, get killed, get back up to do it all again. But there's only so many times you can be slain and revived before it gets old. They're losing passion for the job and yearning to finally rest in peace. After a poor performance review with the dungeon's sinister wizard, Skeleton spirals further into an existential crisis and wild frenzy. Is this all there is for them? Can they really be alive in an undead body? And how can they get out of here?

Reviews

"It's impossible not to get sucked in by the warp and woof of Syd Madia's exuberant, funky linework! Many will find our hero's plight all too familiar, trapped eternally in an (un)dead-end job lining the coffers of a goofy, sociopathic boss. Madia (re)animates this existential dungeon crawler about a skeleton searching for embodiment with incredible charm and wit."
Sami Alwani, The Pleasure of the Text
