First Look: BOOM! Studios’ CODA #1

BOOM! Studios has shared a first look at the return of Simon “Si” Spurrier and Matías Bergara’s apocalyptic fantasy adventure in a preview of CODA #1. Keep scrolling for a look at cover art and interior pages from the exciting first issue!

The publisher also shared a brief synopsis on the new story:

In this brand new adventure in the apocalyptic fantasy world of Coda, the despondent bard Hum finds a slice of tranquility with his wife, the Urken named Serka, in an ever-darkening, magic-less apocalypse – or so it seems. Prophecies of paradise and the return of magic? Hum is skeptical, while Serka faces difficult moral decisions on the road, with winter quickly approaching…

“It’s Coda. It’s Matias. It’s about what happens after the magic dies. It’s about muddling through and giant crabs and accursed moons and love and religion and kamikaze messenger-fairies and foul-mouthed unicorns and trying really really really hard not to go on quests,” Spurrier said. “It’s the funnest and most poisonous and best thing to write, ever, and I think it might be our best work yet.”

CODA #1 will debut September 27, 2023, with a main cover by Matías Bergara and variant covers by Toni Infante and Nick Dragotta.
