In this in-depth conversation, Ben Mauro — legendary concept artist behind Halo, Elysium, and Chappie — joins This Comic Cooks to talk about the creation of HUXLEY, his deeply personal sci-fi graphic novel universe.

We explore why Mauro chose comics over film, how HUXLEY grew from a solo passion project into a global bookstore release, and what it means to create something physical in an increasingly digital world.

We are talking:

• How HUXLEY was built one page at a time

• Why physical books still matter in 2026

• The role of AI in modern science fiction

• Mauro’s influences (Akira, Moebius, Dune)

• How HUXLEY: The Oracle expands the universe

• What makes meaningful sci-fi timeless

If you love science fiction, graphic novels, worldbuilding, or thoughtful conversations about creativity and craft, this episode is for you.
