Justice like lightning? Peter Cannon, Thunderbolt is back from Dynamite, with creators Fred Van Lente and Jonathan Lau on board for the November-debuting series.

In the book, per PR, “The last surviving member of an order of mystics that have unlocked the full, unbound potential of their brains has arrived on the streets of New York City. Their mission? To confront the renegade master who destroyed the teachers of this clan — including their own parents. Their target? Peter Cannon himself. The hidden one has become entrenched within the city’s elite and has his sights set on Peter. Yet they’ll be biting off more than they can chew, as their mark is the one and only fabled Lightning Vessel of the Awakened, able to collapse time with a single strike and defy death itself, Peter Cannon is… the living Thunderbolt!”

Lau penciling Peter Cannon is actually a bit of a homecoming as he previously drew the first take on the character from Dynamite over a decade ago. In addition to Lau and Van Lente, the book will feature colors by Andrew Dalhouse, letters by Jeff Eckleberry, and will be edited by Nate Cosby.
