The upcoming Netflix series The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance has already been confirmed to be a prequel to the 1982 Jim Henson classic. However, it looks like the 10-part prequel show is also getting a prequel comic book series of its own, thanks to Boom Studios.
The publisher announced Jim Henson's The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, a 12-issue series that will follow the events before the rebellion that takes place in the Netflix show (via io9). The comics will be written by Nicole Andelfinger and illustrated by Matias Basla, while the cover art was created by Mona Finden.
Here's the variant cover for the first issue that was designed by Kelly and Nichole Matthews.
Andelfinger expressed excitement over being a part of the Dark Crystal comic book.
The official description for the comic series reads as follows:
The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance will premiere on Netflix on August 30. It will be followed by the prequel comic series which will be available starting September 25.
