With Comic-Con 2025 drawing near, Comixology is revealing one of the biggest new titles appearing at the show. Comixology is joining forces with Cosmic Lighthouse to publish Salvation's Run, a prequel to sci-fi writer Adrian Tchaikovsky's The Final Architecture series.
IGN can exclusively debut the first preview of Salvation's Child, which will be released on the Comixology Originals platform in 2026. Get a closer look in the slideshow gallery below:
Cosmic Lighthouse is a new publishing company spearheaded by Doctor Who writer Paul Cornell and his business partner, Anthony Cronin, one designed to pair popular sci-fi writers with acclaimed comic book artists. Salvation's Child will be written by Tchaikovsky and illustrated by Mike Collins (Doctor Who Magazine), with colors by Pippa Bowland, letters by Simon Bowland, cover art by Steve Stone, and edits by Cornell.
The official description for Salvation's Child teases, "In Salvation's Child, the alien Architects have ripped Earth apart and threaten every colony world… but can one small child sense their approach?"
"The chance to revisit this universe in a new medium is an incredible opportunity,” said Tchaikovsky in a statement. "I’m grateful that Paul, Comixology, and Cosmic Lighthouse have given me this opportunity to return to the Architects and look at parts of the setting the original books didn’t get a chance to linger on. Working with the artistic team has been an exciting experience and I think together we’ve created something really special.”
"We at Cosmic Lighthouse are excited to work with the very best names in the field of science fiction and fantasy paired with great comic artists to bring new and longtime readers of the genre more of what they love in a new medium,“ said Cornell. "Launching our first title digitally with Comixology Originals brings us even closer to the future."
