We Already Have a First Look at JIM HENSON'S THE DARK CRYSTAL: AGE OF RESISTANCE #5
The fifth issue of Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance is coming in January and we’ve already got a first look. The story acts as a prequel to the original Netflix series of the same name and is written by Adam Cesare with art from French Carlomagno. The main cover comes from Mona Finden with a variant connecting cover from Kelly and Nichole Matthews.
“In JIM HENSON’S THE DARK CRYSTAL: AGE OF RESISTANCE #5, available in January 2020, writer Adam Cesare and artist French Carlomagno present a story of fan favorite Podling Hup and brand new character Barfinnious. Hup is a Podling cook who dreams of being a Paladin. When the chivalrous bard Barfinnious comes to Hup’s village with tales of former glory, Hup leaves his small town to follow him. But the longer they travel, the more Hup begins to doubt that Barfinnious is truly who he says he is. Can he trust the smooth-talking bard to help him realize his dreams or will his future as a noble knight end before it ever really began?”
Age of Resistance #5 will be available on January 15 with print copies exclusive to local comic shops.
