Skottie Young, the Eisner Award-winning I Hate Fairyland, and Middlewest and artist Kyle Strahm (Spread, Unearth) are coming together for an all-new epic fantasy/adventure called, Twig, a five-issue miniseries is set to launch from Image Comics in May.
It’s the first day of his new job as a journeyer, Twig finds himself on a Jeff Smith’s Bone-esque quest to save a The Dark Crystal/Labyrinth-style world. Join our hesitant hero for an inspiring and imaginative tale of hope, heartache, and determination to overcome insurmountable odds.
Young, in a ComicBook.com exclusive about the series, said:
“Kyle and I both grew up in the age of Fantasy movies filled with all kinds of critters, creatures, and unlikely heroes on epic quests. This is our love letter to that time, which we’ve never really left!”
Strahm added:
“Skottie and I have built a world where sunny landscapes hide creepy dark corners. Every environment Twig travels is a character all its own. And each strange new friend may not be so friendly!”
