In addition to AD, I am also very pleased to announce PLUTONA, a new collaboration with artist EMI LENOX and colorist JORDIE BELLAIRE from Image Comics.
“Plutona will use the superhero genre as
the entry point into a dark journey that explores the nature of friendship and
good and evil, all through the eyes of five children alone in the woods,"
hinted Lemire.
Lenox added: “The children in Plutona
face some really dark situations and will realize that not everything is going
to be okay. Don’t let the artwork fool you, this is not a children’s book. This
is the kind of story I’ve been wanting to create for quite some time and am
excited to do so with such talented folks like Jeff and Jordie."
PLUTONA follows the story of five suburban kids
who make a shocking discovery while exploring the woods one day after school...
the body of the world's greatest super hero, Plutona, laying dead among the mud
and grass.
Led by the headstrong Mie and the troubled
Teddy, the kids decide to keep their incredible discovery a secret, but it soon
starts to tear their young lives apart, setting them against one another and
pulling them into a darkness they may never be able to return from.
The series is set to launch from Image Comics in
2015.
