Discover Excitement, Adventure, and Magic Around Every Bend in August 2019
[/vc_column_text][us_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][us_separator][vc_column_text]BOOM! Studios today revealed a first look at NEW WORLD, a new original graphic novel debuting in stores August 2019 from visionary Brazilian cartoonist David Jesus Vignolli, creator of the acclaimed A Girl in The Himalayas.
Myth intertwines with history in this fantastical adventure that takes off as the New World collides with the old. The arrival of Europeans on the shores of South America sparks a fateful journey of discovery and daring for a native warrior seeking revenge against those who invaded her land, an African musician fighting for freedom against those who enslaved him, and a Portuguese sailor in search of redemption.
NEW WORLD is a timely story about the ways our differences unite us in our darkest hours, intertwining the cultures of Vignolli’s personal heritage to explore a legend that mixes vibrant blends of fantasy and history together to explore a world unlike any other.[/vc_column_text][us_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][us_separator size=”small”][us_image_slider ids=”20136,20137,20138,20139,20140,20141,20142,20143,20144,20145,20146,20147,20148,20149,20150,20151,20152,20153,20154″ nav=”thumbs” fullscreen=”1″ img_fit=”contain”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][us_separator][vc_column_text]NEW WORLD is the latest release from BOOM!
