Dark Horse Announces Masters of the Universe: Revolution
After the mostly fun Masters of the Universe: Forge of Destiny miniseries written by Tim Seeley wrapped up just a few weeks ago, Dark Horse Comics has announced another new miniseries for the franchise — Masters of the Universe: Revolution. The four-part miniseries will be written by Tim Sheridan, Rob David, and Ted Biaselli, with art by Daniel HDR and Keith Champagne, coloring by Brad Simpson, and lettering by AndWorld Design. The comic shares its name, and creative team, with the Masters of the Universe: Revolution television series which premieres January 25th on Netflix.
Dark Horse shared the following on what readers can expect:
Journey to the earliest days of one of the universe’s most consequential and fraught team-ups. Hordak is an ambitious general, eager to make his mark; Skeletor is an aspiring mage hungry for power. Joining forces, melding ancient Eternian magic with advanced Horde technology, could bring them all their evil hearts’ desire...but they’ll have to survive each other first.
Masters of the Universe: Revolution #1 hits shelves May 15th with a main cover by Dave Wilkins and a variant cover by Tyler Boss.
