Remember 'Choose Your Own Adventure' books? Now there's a gorgeous graphic novel version heading to 'Space and Beyond' (exclusive)
Oni Press is set to release a new graphic novel adaptation of the classic "Choose Your Own Adventure" book, "Space and Beyond," on August 4, 2026. Originally published in 1980 by R. A. Montgomery, the story invites readers to embark on a space-faring journey where they make choices that shape their adventure. This updated version offers over 44 possible endings, allowing readers to explore different pathways as they navigate planets, alien encounters, black holes, and time travel. The graphic novel is written by the creative team behind titles such as "The Night Mother" and "Dungeons & Dragons," with artwork that enhances the immersive experience. Readers follow a protagonist born on a spaceship traveling between galaxies, accompanied by a three-eyed alien companion. The narrative’s vivid illustrations bring to life the challenges and wonders of space exploration, including avoiding nebulae, seeking aid from a mother ship, and facing cosmic dangers like intense gravitational pulls and solar radiation. This adaptation revives the interactive storytelling format that made the original series a staple for middle-grade readers in the 1980s and 1990s. By blending choice-driven narrative with graphic novel visuals, "Space and Beyond" aims to engage a new generation in the excitement of decision-making and adventure. The story’s emphasis on consequences highlights the enduring appeal of the "Choose Your Own Adventure" concept in teaching readers about the impact of their choices. With its release, Oni Press continues to tap into nostalgia while innovating the format for contemporary audiences. The graphic novel not only celebrates a beloved literary tradition but also expands the possibilities of interactive storytelling through art, making it a notable addition to the growing genre of choice-based narratives.
