After heading up fan favorite runs on Conan the Barbarian and Dungeons & Dragons, writer Jim Zub teams up with acclaimed artist Alberto J. Alburquerque to launch the dark fantasy, Omen-Bound. The ongoing series is set to launch in March 2027 from Image Comics.

Omen-Bound will see a steady stream of promotion that begins at this year’s New York Comic Con with a limited run of black and white Omen-Bound preview editions available to readers interested in a first look at the core cast of characters and perilous world of The Untaken Lands. The limited Omen-Bound Preview Edition will be available on a first come, first served basis at Artist Alley tables I-33 and A-33.

In Omen-Bound, a skilled group of warriors and priests from a strict religious order must escort a dangerous supernatural prisoner back to their realm beyond reality, but each step closer to that goal will test them in ways they never imagined and reveal secrets about themselves and the history of their world that may save or damn them all. The story blends classic sword & sorcery elements with the intense emotional stakes of comics like The Walking Dead. It is a perfect read for longtime fantasy fans and new readers alike, with soaring artwork that follows a fated journey filled with epic action and unexpected twists.

Omen-Bound #1 will be available at comic book shops in March 2027.
