WHAT IS THE UNPOPULAR STUDIO?
Unpopular Studio is an independent transmedia studio — a place where writers, artists, sculptors, and 2D/3D animators build comics, novels, and animations under one roof. Our stories are bold, fast, and a little uncomfortable, meant to make you think before they make you comfortable.
Somewhere along the way, values like honesty, discipline, hard work, and decency stopped being popular. We’d rather be unpopular than give them up. We take the old folktales as our starting point and ask what the Grimm Brothers, Andersen, or Perrault would be writing today — then tell the stories they might tell now: edgy, honest, and unafraid of complexity.
We make bold cyberpunk and sci-fi comics, novels, and animations for readers who want substance with their style. Our flagship is Punkdroid, a cyberpunk anthology of dystopian, thought-provoking stories about technology, AI, and what happens to us when the machine takes over. Open something with our name on it and you won’t be indifferent — you’ll either love it or hate it, but you won’t be bored.
Unpopular Studio is led by Christian Douglas — writer, editor, and publisher, published in seven books, with independent work crowdfunded across multiple languages and countries. We’re not for everyone, but if you want stories that hit like a stab and stay with you, you’re in the right place.
