Final WYND Volume Soars in 2024
The Landing Ground: A Stage Set for War
The stage is set for the ultimate melee with humans, Faeriekind, and those eery Vampyres putting on their war face. At the center of it all, our plucky hero Wynd finds himself under the horrifyingly polished claws of Zedra and her Vampyre squad. Seems like a touch of the eldritch happened as Zedra discovered that siphoning Wynd’s supernatural life juice gifts her troupe a fresh wing-replacement service, ensuring their formidable presence in the upcoming war.
But where’s a hero without his brave, wit-abundant sidekicks? Wynd’s band of brothers in Newport are hardly twiddling their thumbs. They’re acting out their Hollywood rescue mission to save Wynd from the fangs of doom.
Series artist Michael Dialynas headlines the cover artwork for WYND: THE POWER OF THE BLOOD #1. Other creative minds taking a shot at the covers include the praised illustrators Toni Infante, known for Sons of Anarchy, and Sweeney Boo, Harley Quinn’s artist, among others.
BOOM! Studios: A House Hold Name
WYND: THE POWER OF THE BLOOD slots comfortably among BOOM! Studios’ highly-praised original series like BRZRKR by Keanu Reeves, Matt Kindt, and Ron Garney, and Stuff of Nightmares by R.L. Stine and A.L. Kaplan, to drop just a few big names. The powerhouse studio also adds a touch of nostalgia for its audience with adapted classics like Mighty Morphin Power Rangers by Melissa Flores and Simona Di Gianfelice, as well as The Expanse: Dragon Tooth by Andy Diggle, Rubine, and Francesco Pisa.
