Legendary Comics Announces ‘Firebrand: The Initiation Of Natali Presano’ From Jessica Chobot and Erika Lewis!

Briefly: Some slick news out of Washington’s AwesomeCon!

I’ve always been a fan of Legendary Comics; both the company’s prequel graphic novels and original tales are typically stellar, and often bring both new and legendary (hah) talent together for books that are often some of the best in recent memory.

Today the company revealed Firebrand: The Initiation Of Natali Presano, from a pretty interesting trio, including Jessica Chobot, The 49th Key writer Erika Lewis, and La Maison Bleue artist Claudia Aguirre is set to to launch later this year, and has a beyond interesting premise:

Natali Presano never fit into her father’s perfectly human world: politically ambitious, he turned his back on her just when she needed him most. Losing her mother to tragedy as a young child, Natali fled the safety of home into the arms of her aunt Selena, the mysterious guardian of a magical order waging a centuries-old war for survival in the mountains of Spain.

 

Natali, now in her 20s, has followed in her aunt’s footsteps, becoming a powerful but rebellious witch in her own right. Returning to Seattle, she finds herself caught between a cruel modern world and the ancient evil threatening to destroy it.

Few details about the upcoming book have been revealed, but details are still forthcoming, and the book is set to launch later this year.

For now, take a look at the gorgeous preview image for Firebrand: The Initiation Of Natali Presano below, and stay tuned for more information!
