'Deadly Class’ Wes Craig Brings the Action in Upcoming New Series 'Kaya' This October

 

From writer and artist Wes Craig (Deadly Class, Gravediggers Union) comes an astonishing fantasy adventure in the upcoming, Kaya. This new ongoing series will launch from Image Comics in October.

Kaya is the story of siblings surviving in a world of monsters and mutants. After the destruction of their village, a young girl with a magic arm and a fighting spirit is tasked with delivering her little brother to a faraway safe haven. There, he’s destined to discover the secret to overthrowing the all-powerful empire that destroyed their home.

“I’m putting every bit of heart, action, and fun that I can into each issue," said Craig. "Kaya, her brother Jin, and the strange world they live in are very real to me, and I think readers are gonna have a blast discovering it, month in, month out.”

First previewed in the Image! Anthology, this jam-packed series premiere features 31 gorgeous story pages, bonus material, and a Jack Kirby-inspired variant cover by Craig. This new series is a must-have for readers on the hunt for their next favorite read.
