Image Comics Announces a Prelude OGN to Upcoming FIRE POWER Series
January 9, 2020Eager fans won’t have to wait long in getting their first peek at the upcoming Fire Power, from Robert Kirkman and Chris Samnee, as Image Comics announced a prequel/prelude graphic novel for the series.
The series, which centers on Owen Johnson’s journey to China to learn about his birth parents, eventually leads him to a mysterious Shaolin Temple. The students there study to rediscover the Fire Power, the lost art of throwing fireballs. A power they claim will be needed soon to save the world.
“Owen Johnson’s story is just too epic! We need this prelude graphic novel to get you primed for the series launch with issue #1,” said Kirkman. “I’m so thrilled that we’re going to be introducing the world to Fire Power in this format. Readers will be able to pick up this book, featuring nearly eight issues worth of story and art for $9.99 on a Wednesday and then come back to the store on Saturday ready for the free issue #1 on Free Comic Book Day! That’s almost too much Samnee and Wilson goodness to handle!”
Fire Power, Volume 1: Prelude will drop on Wednesday, April 29, preceding the FCBD issue of Fire Power #1 and the launch issue of the series, both of which are currently scheduled to release in May of 2020.
