‘ThunderCats: Lost’ Sends Thunderians To War From Ed Brisson And Rapha Lobosco

ThunderCats are usually on the loose, but not they’re on the… Lost? Or they will be in ThunderCats: Lost, a new series from Dynamite coming in March.

Written by Ed Brisson with art by Rapha Lobosco, the team behind the ThunderCats: Apex one-shot, per PR, “After being shot down in the middle of a war zone, five Thunderian warriors find themselves lost, on the run, and fighting for their lives. Trapped behind enemy lines and being hunted by a powerful enemy, the ThunderCats: Lost team invites fans into a wholly new outlook on the franchise.”

“The world that the ThunderCats: Lost team have ventured into is very different from where our mainline ThunderCats are, and the trials and tribulations that they face as a result are unique to this series — though just as exciting and deadly,” said Brisson. “They find themselves trapped in a highly militarized zone, in a world that eschews magic in favor of hyper-advanced technology. This world is ruled with an iron fist, under a cruel dictator with an innate hatred of cats — so much so that they’re hellbent on stamping out this cat invasion before it can take root. The villains they face will be familiar to ThunderCats fans, but you’ll have to read to find out just who they’re up against.”

Added editor Nate Cosby, “They’re not heroes. They won’t all survive. To them, all that matters is completing their secret mission.”

The “cast” of the new series includes Bengali, Pumyra, and Lynx-O, all from the later seasons of the ThunderCats animated series… Though Dynamite notes they’ll have different origins, thanks to the rebooted continuity of the comics. Meanwhile, they’ll be joined by two new characters: Neko, and Ligon.

Neko is a “fierce snow leopard, a skilled warrior who tries to solve every problem with violence.” Meanwhile, Ligon is a “gigantic liger, with no need for weapons beyond his fists, but a kind and caring heart.”

The first issue will sport covers by Felipe Massafera, Clayton Henry, Declan Shalvey, Mark Bagley, and Jae Lee, as well as the first of several covers for Dynamite books by Mark Bagley. ThunderCats: Lost hits stores in March, 2025.
