New Beyond Comic: Maternal Instincts

By | April 8, 2026

Later this month, we’ll be premiering a prequel volume to our longest-running Beyond comic: Substitute Perspectives!

Maternal Instincts is our first Beyond comic to serve as a prequel, and it will premiere on April 22, after Volume 2 of Seed of the Sorceress concludes. It will be a one-shot volume.

⚠️ Spoiler warning: If you haven’t finished Volume 5 of Substitute Perspectives, this prequel contains spoilers for how that series ends. We currently have no plans to continue Substitute Perspectives, as we consider that series complete.

“Years ago, when Chris and Jessica were kids, Nolan and the family were reeling from Scarlett’s death. Every day, he wished it had been him instead of her, for the sake of their children. Desperate to give them back their mother, Nolan transforms himself into Scarlett and uses his magic to rewrite history so everyone believes he was the one who died. Now he must adjust to taking Scarlett’s place in the household.”

Maternal Instincts will be canon to Substitute Perspectives, though SP is a non-canon retelling of Different Perspectives.
