In this episode of The Comic Source, Jace sits down with creator Ben Mauro to dive into the epic sci-fi universe of his original graphic novel Huxley and its prequel Huxley: The Oracle. Ben talks about conceiving the world long before his blockbuster film work at Weta on projects like Elysium and The Hobbit, developing the early pages while freelancing and backpacking around the world, and how heavy metal–style European comics, manga, and cinematic concept art all shaped the book’s distinct visual identity. Jace and Ben discuss the core premise of Huxley’s post-apocalyptic adventure, the more grounded, war-story tone of The Oracle, and how themes of AI, responsibility, long-ago mistakes, and second chances drive the emotional heart of the saga—without giving away any major twists. Ben also pulls back the curtain on his process, from pencils and color “soundtracks” to building lore across timelines, hints at trailers and potential adaptations, and lets listeners know where they can pick up both editions in time for the holidays, making this a perfect episode for fans of rich, visually stunning science fiction looking for their next great universe to explore.
