First Look at Minor Arcana #2

Written by August Tales

BOOM! Studios is spooking fans with their latest reveal, giving the first peek of MINOR ARCANA #2. This series, crafted by Jeff Lemire and the breakthrough letterer Steve Wands, claims the spotlight as their initial venture into the creator-owned sector with BOOM! Studios. From its legendary creators to the monumental first chapter, MINOR ARCANA is a riveting spectacle due in comic shops this October.

Navigating Supernatural Shadows

Jeff Lemire’s brainchild MINOR ARCANA embarks on a new threshold where the protagonist, Theresa, takes a terrifying plunge into the deceased’s memories. The reward? A final fragment of serenity for her now gone mother’s desperate client. The trance she’s ensnared in, treading the line between the tangible and the occult, is more than she bargained for. Her haunting past infuses confusion into her situation and reveals the existence of real magic. Moreover, a chilling entity mirroring her every move steps in, lurking just out of sight.

The Shrouded Revealed

MINOR ARCANA #2 exhibits the first of the four elaborate storylines for this continuous comic venture by Lemire and BOOM! Studios. Reflecting the essence of a tarot deck, the narratives will neatly bundle into The Book of Wands, The Book of Swords, The Book of Cups, and The Book of Pentacles. The individual comics bring exclusive cover art by the creator himself, Jeff Lemire, and distinguished illustrators like Reiko Murakami, Matías Bergara, and Mike Del Mundo. Interestingly, Lemire’s series will feature a special tarot card variant cover for each comic. Upon completion, these standalone covers will form a full tarot deck.

A Fresh Start for BOOM! Studios

Marking a fresh start for BOOM! Studios, MINOR ARCANA expands the product range under the imprint’s award-winning umbrella. Joining the esteemed ranks of its comic predecessors – BRZRKR, Something is Killing the Children, and Ghostlore – promises MINOR ARCANA #2 an impressive audience. Noteworthy licensed publications, including Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Dune: House Corrino, also contribute to the imprint’s ongoing success.

On October 9, 2024, MINOR ARCANA #2 will hit comic shops for anxious fans everywhere. Pre-orders are open from individual comic stores and digital copies are available from Kindle, iBooks, and Google Play. Mark your calendars, comic fans, because MINOR ARCANA #2 is ready to etch its indelible mark on the timeline of supernatural comics.
