Witness the hunter become the hunted in the next hair-raising chapter of a groundbreaking, all-new HORROR UNIVERSE from the twisted minds of rising superstar artist and creative visionary Manix Abrera (THUNDERCATS), New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti (SUPERMAN ‘78), and acclaimed indie horror director Brockton McKinney (REPTCHILD).

With an arsenal of top-of-the-line weaponry at his fingertips and a crack team of expert guides at his beck and call, no beast is a match for the man they call The Hunter. That is, until he finds himself face-to-face with an ancient creature deep in the heart of the African Savannah, one thought to be of myth and legend. The hunter will soon find out that no one can withstand the unforgiving jaws of the undead. And no man can escape – The RE-ALLIGATOR!

ThunderCats Comic Escalates With Epic Fourth Arc and The Knights of Thundera!

Posted on by

The ThunderCats comic book saga raises the stakes — and the swords — this May with the start of the fabulous fourth story arc of the flagship series, from Dynamite Entertainment and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products.

Tireless talents Declan Shalvey and Drew Moss pull out all the stops starting in ThunderCats #16 with a series of Third Earth-shattering revelations and a major level up for the titular feline warriors. In the preceding storyline, the ‘Cats were met with both significant discovery and tragic loss. The ThunderCats face greater challenges requiring a new innovation: The Knights of Thundera.

Their traditional leader of Lion-O is missing in action, motivating Cheetara to step up and take the mantle. The mysterious new character to this series (first appearing in #2) Calica has returned. Tygra has crafted a new metal alloy christened Thundore and outfitted the team with armored suits, which Panthro now requires in order to walk following his injuries at the hands of Mumm-Ra. And when another unexpected character crashes the party in Bengali, last seen in companion series ThunderCats Lost, tensions flare.

In spite of all these curveballs and uncertainties, the ThunderCats begin a new era on their newfound home of Third Earth, establishing the Knights of Thundera, to be a more proactive security force hunting down and crippling their enemies. Each new knight is equipped with a fearsome new sword, all matched to their characterization and existing fighting styles and designed by Drew Moss, alongside their new armors.

With their offensive and defensive capabilities upgraded, that won’t stop forces from continuing to clash and lay siege to them. The question remains, will this new incarnation of the team be able to deal with what comes next?

This next story arc and perfect opportunity to jump right into the franchise is complemented by a set of stunning covers from Shalvey and Moss, as well as Lucio Parrillo, Jae Lee, and Manix Abrera.

12

by Manix Abrera • MSRP: $14.99 • 152 pg full-color TP • Release Date: June 28th

Twelve remarkable stories, weird and surreal, thought-provoking yet funny, sometimes disturbing, others terrifying, but nonetheless always enchanting. Twelve genuinely touching stories, all drawn in Manix’s engaging style, devoid of words but communicating loudly.

Each story with its own charm, and intriguing twists – a young man spends his entire

life searching for answers but shock awaits when he finally gets that eureka moment; someone finds love that unexpectedly finds somebody else; two men argue over who goes first on an escalator; a mother and daughter fight over a cockroach; a drunk  man urinates on a tree and gets a big surprise – making you wonder how these mundane plots can turn out bizarrely, prompting you to reflect and crave for more! What is the meaning of life? Is finding happiness worth it when you lose what really matters the most? Would you even know what matters the most? Embrace pain and sorrow. Hope for love and will for hope.

Manix Abrera’s 12 breaks all language barriers, cutting straight to your soul, touching your heart in ways you cannot imagine.

14

by Manix Abrera • MSRP: $16.99 • 200-pg full-color TP • Release Date: September 27th

14 tells the story of a human who mysteriously discovers a 13th floor on his building and finds himself in the middle of a storytelling session among different mythological creatures of Philippine folklore. Together with a partying crowd of supernatural beings, he listens to stories narrated by creatures such as the Manananggal, Diwata, Tikbalang, Kapre, Tiyanak, and even by a White Lady and a Doppelganger. With each creature taking the stage, describing wild stories spurred by their unique, terrifying traits and abilities, 14 is a grand narrative of weird yet wonderful tales, humorous albeit dark and spooky, surreal but unarguably true to the emotions of the heart. Stories like finding love then losing it, searching for happiness, getting lost, staying trapped, wanting to belong, dying to be born again – may all sound too human, but are also being experienced by these mythological creatures.
