By Staff Reports
BOOM! Studios announced today that ONCE & FUTURE #2 the next chapter of the hottest original series launch of the year from New York Times bestselling writer Kieron Gillen (The Wicked + The Divine, Star Wars), Russ Manning Award-winning artist Dan Mora (Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Klaus), and acclaimed colorist Tamra Bonvillain (Doom Patrol), has sold out of its second printing at the distributor level.
Due to enthusiastic support from retailers and fans alike, BOOM! Studios will publish the ONCE & FUTURE #2 THIRD PRINTING VARIANT, featuring an all-new cover by acclaimed artists Jae Lee and June Chung, arriving in stores on October 9, 2019.
The latest issue of the highly acclaimed and bestselling new original series, ONCE & FUTURE #2 follows retired monster hunter Bridgette McGuire and her unsuspecting grandson Duncan as they prepare for battle against a rising evil that plans to take over their country to bring it back to its former glory.
There’s no turning back now as Bridgette drags Duncan deeper and deeper into the heart of British mythology and folklore to search for a way to stop a rising group of Nationalists from bringing an ancient and terrible power to life. Duncan’s just battled an absolutely impossible creature from legend and been shot—by his Gran, no less!—so he feels he’s due a few explanations, starting with how his nice, perfectly normal Gran knows so much about monsters and how to deal with them?! And what else has his family been hiding from him?
“Thanks to the continued demand for the hottest new adventure series of the year, ONCE & FUTURE #2 is moving to a third printing to ensure that everyone gets a chance to visit their local comic shop and pick up a copy.” said Filip Sablik, President, Sales and Marketing, BOOM! Studios. “Given the surprises and thrills that Kieron, Dan, and Tamra have in store for fans, you won’t want to miss out on what happens next with Bridgette and Duncan in this must-read series.”
