Matt Wagner’s Grendel returns to Earth in his latest adventure from Dark Horse Comics titled Grendel: Devil’s Crucible—Defiance.
The first of three series in the all-new Grendel: Devil’s Crucible storyline, Defiance is written and illustrated by Wagner, colored by Brennan Wagner, and lettered by Steve Dutro and Rob Leigh.
The new story arc begins following the events of Grendel: Devil’s Odyssey and sees Grendel Prime confront the “Necro Lords”.
Wagner shed some light on the upcoming storyline and said “Devil’s Odyssey was a dramatic break in the futuristic setting of Grendel. And Devil’s Crucible goes one step further by turning the precepts and setting of that world on its collective ear. Gone are the dominant Grendel clans and their military elitism, and yet that fascistic power structure has been replaced…by something far worse! I’ve got some major surprises on deck for this storyline and a word of warning for longtime readers; be careful what you wish for!”
Grendel: Devil’s Crucible—Defiance #1 (of 4) will arrive in comic shops on July 3, 2024
