Dungeon Crawler Carl, Vol. 1 (Graphic Novel)
by Matt Dinniman

Vol. 1 of the trade paperback/graphic novel of Dungeon Crawler Carl releases May 19, 2026–in two cover styles:

Standard Edition (Laurel Pursuit)

Exclusive Edition (Yoshi Yoshitan Variant Cover) 

The LitRPG fantasy smash hit phenomenon and New York Times bestseller, DUNGEON CRAWLER CARL, is now a graphic novel for the very first time! The Apocalypse WILL be televised! You know what’s worse than breaking up with your girlfriend? Getting stuck on a sadistic alien game show with her cat. Join Carl and Princess Donut as they try to survive the end of the world — or just get to the next level of a trap-filled fantasy dungeon.

With vibrant art done by Laurel Pursuit to bring action-packed battles to life, join as Carl fights his way through the dungeon in heart-speckled underwear.

And of course, the grizzly scenes are only balanced with the incredibly fluffy, wide-eyed stare of its main character, Princess Donut.

A ton of heart and effort was poured in creating a series with a script and style that would both appeal to WEBTOON readers and also lovers of DCC, all while consulting author Matt Dinniman the entire way about character designs, story, – EVERYTHING!

We couldn’t resist taking the apocalyptic awesomeness of the DUNGEON CRAWLER CARL WEBTOON and adapting it into the FIRST EVER graphic novel series!

Welcome, Crawler. Welcome to the Dungeon. Survival is optional. Keeping the viewers entertained is not.

This volume collects episodes 1-13 of the WEBTOON edition.
