NEW DEBUT ISSUE!

MUMM-RA THE EVER-LIVING #1

Writer: Declan Shalvey

Artist: Rapha Lobosco

Covers: Danny Earls (A), Declan Shalvey (B), John Amor (C), Erica D’urso (D), Animation Art (E), Blank Authentix (F)

THE SECRETS OF MUMM-RA REVEALED! Mumm-Ra the Ever-Living has been a sinister enigma to the ThunderCats ever since they first set foot on Third Earth. Now, in the second chapter of author DECLAN SHALVEY’s epic 15-part ThunderCats X SilverHawks crossover event, the infamous devil-priest’s ancient and tortured history will finally be unveiled! It all begins in a pyramid — but not the sinister black fortress that haunts Lion-O’s dreams. This is Earth during the reign of the pharaohs, and for one nameless slave a chance discovery and a selfish act of cruelty will open a pathway to both freedom and power — for a price! Written by Shalvey and illustrated by acclaimed ThunderCats Lost artist RAPHA LOBOSCO, Mumm-Ra the Ever-Living #1 takes a deep dive into one of pop culture’s greatest villains — enhanced by appropriately atmospheric covers from SHALVEY, DANNY EARLS, JOHN AMOR, and ERICA D’URSO, as well as a special piece of classic ANIMATION ART. This debut issue also features three spectacular incentive editions, including an original cover from Shalvey, a special Mumm-Ra portrait from the WBD Library, and an autographed edition of Shalvey’s main cover signed by ThunderCats original series voice actor LARRY KENNEY!
