BOOM! Studios Launches Dark Crystal Maxi-Series

Jim Henson's film The Dark Crystal took audiences into a strange and mystical world of ancient prophecies, dying races, and the magic that would restore the world. BOOM! Studios expands the world of the film with Jim Henson's Beneath the Dark Crystal #1 (MAY181174), a sequel to the film that explores the world created in the aftermath of the reunification of the Dark Crystal!

A new leader has been chosen for the land of Thra — the Gelfling Kensho — but he feels unworthy of the honor.  Across the world, in the land of Mithra, Thurma is crowned the Ember Queen of the Firelings, but there is another claimant to her throne. To determine the future of both realms, the past must be reckoned with!

Continuing the story of BOOM! Studios' Jim Henson's The Power of the Dark Crystal, the 12-issue maxi-series that kicks off with Beneath the Dark Crystal #1 (MAY181174) will enchant readers with a tale of a world in crisis — and the chosen few who are the only hope for peace!
