THE DARK CRYSTAL: AGE OF RESISTANCE
BOOM! Studios has announced Jim Hensonfs The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, a 12-issue comic-book series based on a story from Netflix series The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance writers Jeffrey Addis and Will Matthews, introducing the untold histories of key characters from the show, and featuring explosive events tying into the Netflix series from The Jim Henson Company, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, in stores on Sept. 25.
Enter a world of wonder, danger, and excitement with writer Nicole Andelfinger and artist Matias Basla as they uncover an epic story from the world of Thra in the time before Age of Resistance. War and chaos reign over the once peaceful land and Gelflings everywhere must fight for the survival of their clans against menacing forces. When a Gelfling soldier sets off on a quest to retrieve the one item that could save their people, he changes the destinies of the inhabitants of Thra forever.
The Dark Crystal is the groundbreaking 1982 film directed by Jim Henson and Frank Oz, featuring never-before-seen puppetry in a fantasy adventure about a young Gelfling who embarks on a quest to save his world from the vicious Skeksis by restoring the lost shard of the broken dark crystal. A prequel television series, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, will premiere on Netflix on August 30, 2019.
Nicole Andelfinger is a comic book writer who has written for series such as Adventure Time, Regular Show, Rugrats, and Steven Universe from BOOM! Studios, as well as the Munchkin series for Simon & Schuster, based on the popular card game from Steve Jackson Games.
"There's something extraordinarily universal about the theme of good vs. evil that seems to speak to so many people from so many walks of life. It's why I think The Dark Crystal has such a strong legacy, even to this day!h said writer, Nicole Andelfinger. "When I was offered the chance to play in that sandbox, exploring the facets of that conflict through some pivotal
Age of Resistance characters, well, I couldn't say no! With Matias Basla's beautiful art, I'm sure you'll come to love and adore these new additions to the world just as we have."
Basla is an artist, designer, and illustrator originally from Santa Fe, Argentina. Basla has worked as a conceptual artist and character designer for different animation and video game studios, mixing this work with numerous comics projects.
"The Dark Crystal universe is something that has always fascinated me, from its unique artistic design to its history. Having the opportunity to work on Age of Resistance with such awesome characters and such a unique world is a joy as an artist.h said artist, Matias Basla. gThis is the kind of project that one faces with much love and respect, and Ifm very happy to be the artist for this amazing series."
The first issue features a main cover by Mona Finden and a variant connecting cover by artists Kelly and Nichole Matthews.
