The stunning, dimension-spanning sci-fi trilogy returns in September in this first look at ARMY OF ONE VOLUME 2 GN.
The press release follows:
Media Release -- Oni Press – the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997 – proudly unveils the first look inside of # 1 New York Times best-selling author Tony Lee and acclaimed artist Yishan Li's ARMY OF ONE VOL. 2 – arriving in bookstores and comic shops everywhere September 17th! Following the smash-hit success of the first volume of this dimension-shattering trilogy of original graphic novels, the stunning saga continues as Brother Havoc grows stronger . . . and even more lethal.
The Shards are scattered and reeling in the wake of Carrie's sudden death. Without her—without the prophecy—they surely stand no chance against Brother Havoc and his rising scourge of alternate-reality fascists. When gravely injured knight TR-8 makes a sudden recovery, the savior, Sister Fortune, and the trained warrior are united as a powerful new trinity, but can they put the other pieces of their rebellion back together in time?
"When we wrote the first five issues, which became Book One" said series writer Tony Lee, "we'd laid the groundwork for the rest of the story, but I didn't want this to become 'Sliders' or some other 'alternate world of the wee'" story - and you have to remember these were written months before Marvel's 'Phase Four' Multiverse Saga began, way back at the start of the COVID pandemic."
"The real world had changed irrevocably and suddenly the story we had planned seemed . . . tame. So, we started discussing how much crazier we could make things. After all, we'd already killed our main character . . . We decided to see how far we could turn that dial, in the next five issues. Turns out, you can twist that damned thing around a hell of a lot before things break . . ."
No dimension is safe . . . ARMY OF ONE VOL. 2 is out September 17th!
