Oni Press has announced a new series with The Nacelle Company titled Sectaurs. The three-issue series is written by Dennis Culver with art by Ramon Bachs.
“I’m beyond thrilled to help Nacelle and Oni reinvent SECTAURS for the 21st Century!” said Dennis Culver. “The Warriors of Symbion are like nothing you’ve ever seen before in comics. It’s GAME OF THRONES, but with BUGS instead of dragons!”

So what’s Sectaurs about?
Millennia past, on the distant planet Symbion, a genetic experiment failed, and evolution took a strange turn. The result of this cataclysm? A world where insects can grow to monstrous proportions, and whose inhabitants have taken on the weird and wondrous characteristics of insects themselves! Telepathically bonded in battle, Sectaurs warriors unite with their insect companions in the ultimate fight for survival! Return to the fantastic alien realm of Symbion as the heroes of this classic ‘80s toy line return to forge their legend anew in an all-new series from Oni Press and the Nacelle Company!
“Of the many beloved properties in the NacelleVerse, SECTAURS holds a special place of reverence for anyone who was first introduced to these characters in the pages of their original Marvel Comics series by legendary creators Bill Mantlo and Mark Texeira,” said Hunter Gorinson, President & Publisher of Oni Press. “It’s a huge joy to see them return to life in spectacularly raucous and rousing fashion at the hands of Dennis Culver and Ramon Bachs – two creators with a penchant for fusing sci-fi, fantasy, and high-flying heroics into pure comic book spectacle.”
