Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance is a tie-in comic book series from Nicole Andelfinger and Matias Basla for the upcoming Netflix series. We already got a look at some of what to expect in the first issue, but now, BOOM! Studios has revealed the second variant cover and it looks awesome. The art is by Christian Ward and it is very different from the other covers we’ve seen.
Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance #1 launches on September 25 wherever you like to buy comics and is being published by BOOM! Studios’ Archaia imprint.
“Meet Maudra Vala of the Stonewood Clan, mother of young rebel Maudra Fara, and a Gelfling leader trying to save her people from complete destruction. The terrifying Arathim, giant spiders and the Gelflings sworn enemies, have swarmed the land, wreaking destruction and chaos everywhere between Gelfling clans and Arathim as they battle for dominance over the forests and caves of Thra. Maudra Vala sends her greatest warrior, Ordon, to the Tomb of Relics to retrieve a mythical weapon that could be the key to winning the war. But the path to the legendary relic is riddled with secret traps and hidden dangers. Will even Ordon, greatest of Gelfling warriors, be able to make his way alone to the Stonewood clan’s last hope for survival? ”
