Get Ready to Travel Through Time and Space in 2020 with THE LOST CITY OF HERACLEON
Writer Bruce Livingstone and artist Mike Willcox are teaming up to create a new original graphic novel called The Lost City of Heracleon. The story will be published by BOOM! Studios’ Archaia imprint. In the novel, readers will go on a journey with two boys through time and space to save the universe as we know it.
“Called to adventure, young boys Lou and Shiro find themselves on an inter-dimensional submarine captained by an off-the-hinges old man. They soon discover Lou’s missing father might still be alive as they are transferred into fully grown warriors headed straight for the battlegrounds of Ancient Egypt, the Lost City, and to 1914 Sarajevo. As the gods tinkering with fate become reckless and apathetic, the boys become part of a legion hell-bent on restoring balance to humanity.”
Talking about the book, Livingstone said:
“A beautifully hand-illustrated and thrilling story about two best friends who master their fears and enter into an epic adventure. Slipping through dimensions, they battle mythical monsters and seek a parler with ancient Gods who don’t quite measure up to their reputations. In the process they find their courage and their long, lost father.”
Meanwhile, Willcox had a lot of fun on the book:
“I had a blast illustrating this book, with my goal to make it as fun and enjoyable to read as possible. It’s over 200 pages of epicness with glimmers of comedy and tragedy, set in an ever-changing backdrop of adventure. Can’t wait for you to make it to the Lost City!”
The Lost City of Heracleon will be available in June 2020.
