The press release follows:
Media Release -- Today Skybound, in partnership with game publisher Com2uS, debuted an exciting first look at Summoners War: Awakening #2 by the all-star team of writer Justin Jordan (Harrower), artist Luca Claretti (Marvel Snap), and colorist Igor Monti (Radiant Black). This action-packed issue of the new series based on the hit mobile game will be available in comic book shops this May.
With the deadly bounty hunter Malakhan hot on their heels, Rai and Tomas accept help from the cunning sky pirate, Captain Eve. But whose side is she on? Are her motives good or bad? And do they really have a choice?
The Summoners War: Awakening comic series is the latest expansion to the Summoners War IP, following Skybound's previous comic series Legacy, which is now available as a collection (AUG210122 | $16.99) everywhere books are sold.
