The ThunderCats are going to be even more on the move than usual as Dynamite has revealed the next comic book series in the franchise: ThunderCats Lost in Time.
Written by Ed Brisson with art by Chris Campana, the book will find the cast of ThunderCats Lost, per PR, “flung far into the future, ripped from Third Earth.” Sent to Sixth Earth — a dystopian future vision of the world, they’ll be thrust into a police state where it’s outlawed to be a ThunderCat. And you know what they say: if it’s illegal to be a ThunderCat, then beggars will ride. I think that’s what they say?
“I’ve been looking forward to writing this issue for a long, long time,” said Brisson via press release. “Things revealed in this one-shot will send shockwaves through the entire ThunderCats comics universe. I cannot overstate how much of a ripple effect this book is going to have. The team is going to learn things about their own history that will force them to reconcile with their own history, while also being forced to make one of the hardest decisions that any of them have had to face — it’s about personal sacrifice for the greater good.”
Along for the time travelin’ ride are Ligon, Lynx-O, Neko, Pumyra, and “a mysterious defector” as the group tries to figure out a way home — and how to prevent this dark future.
The first issue will have the now essential blind bag program, with one of four covers from Declan Shalvey, Enid Balam, Alessandro Ranaldi, and Cat Staggs. Per Dynamite, “There is also a possibility of pulling rarer variants, such as trade dress-free ‘virgin’ or line art variations on those four pieces.”
ThunderCats Lost In Time #1 will hit stores this January.
