New Book Coming From Image: Rise of the Magi

Posted By on February 19, 2014

A new ongoing dark fantasy series is coming from Image in May! Marc Silvestri and Sumeyye Kesgin’s new book features a young, normal man as he tries to save the mundane and fantasy worlds. Asa Stonethrow must find the stolen sphere that contains all the magic in both worlds.

Rise of the Magi

Rise of the Magi is reminiscent of a coming-of-age story with a heavy dose of both magic and action. “The unfamiliar, the uncomfortable, and the things that scare us are what make us grow as people,” said Silvestri. “It’s safe then to say that in Rise of the Magi, Asa and a cast of characters both strange and familiar, will be doing a lot of growing.” Rise of the Magi #0 will be available on Free Comic Book day, and the first issue will hit stands May 21st for $3.50.
