Sobre SPACE SCOUTS:
Una joven se dirige al centro del universo para competir en un reality show y convertirse en la próxima "Exploradora Espacial". Lo que comienza como un drama adolescente se convierte en una guerra mortal en los confines del universo, donde los reclutas "ganadores" son enviados a una batalla clandestina e interminable de la que probablemente no sobrevivirán.
"Exploradores Espaciales es un proyecto soñado que David y yo hemos tenido durante mucho tiempo: contar una historia centrada en miles de superhéroes adolescentes reclutados para salvar el universo", dijo Kindt. "Nos da la oportunidad de dar rienda suelta a nuestra creatividad, con diferentes superpoderes y extraterrestres, todos vinculados a una competición/reality show. Como fan de las disparatadas portadas de los cómics de Superboy de los años 50, esto satisface esa necesidad de inspiración".
"Trabajar con David es algo que nunca rechazaré". Es un talento generacional; me alegra simplemente estar vivo y trabajando en la misma época que él. No ha habido un artista visual tan inventivo y enérgico como David desde Jack Kirby. Canaliza esa misma energía alocada sin ser nada original; David es verdaderamente original.
“Trabajar con Matt siempre es como ir a una fiesta salvaje: emocionante, lleno de sorpresas, muy, muy divertido y, al mismo tiempo, exigente y difícil”, añadió Rubín. “Matt siempre me brinda la oportunidad de explorar nuevos caminos en mi arte, de jugar con la narrativa y me hizo madurar como artista. Esta es la tercera o cuarta vez que trabajamos juntos, y estoy bastante seguro de que no será la última.
Space Scouts #1 (de 3) estará disponible en tiendas de cómics el 5 de noviembre de 2025 y ya está disponible para reservar en tu tienda de cómics local por $7.99.

NOTA DE PRENSA OFICIAL ORIGINAL
BIG BROTHER MEETS “ENDER’S GAME” IN MATT KINDT AND DAVID RUBIN’S NEW SCI-FI SERIES, “SPACE SCOUTS” | | Available November 2025 in three special magazine-sized issues! | MILWAUKIE, Ore., (July 18, 2025)—Dark Horse Comics and Flux House Books present Space Scouts, a new sci-fi space odyssey comic series from Matt Kindt and David Rubín, the team behind the acclaimed sci-fi/fantasy comic series, Ether. This three-issue series, written by Kindt (Gilt Frame, If You Find This, I’m Already Dead) and illustrated and lettered by Rubín (Operation Sunshine, Cosmic Detective), will be presented in magazine-sized issues (8” x 10.875”) with 32 story pages. Each issue will also include bonus content like character designs and variant covers by Sergio Aragones (#1), Brian Hurtt (#2), and Alvaro Martinez Bueno (#3). About Space Scouts: A young girl heads to the center of the universe to compete in a reality show to become the next “Space Scout.” What starts as a teenage drama turns into a deadly war at the edge of the universe as the “winning” recruits are sent into a clandestine, interminable battle that they most likely won’t survive. “Space Scouts is dream project that David and I have had for a long time - getting to tell a story that centers around thousands of teenage super-heroes recruited to save the universe,” said Kindt. “It gives us a chance to let our creativity run wild - with different super powers and aliens all tied to a competition/reality show. As a long-time fan of the crazy 1950s Superboy comic book covers - this scratches that inspirational itch. “Working with David is something I will never turn down. He's a generational talent - I'm happy to just be alive and working in the same era as him. There hasn't been a visual artist as inventive and energetic as David since Jack Kirby. He channels that same bonkers energy without being derivative in the least - David is a true original.” “Work with Matt is always like going to a wild party; exciting, full of surprises, very, very fun and at the same time it is demanding and hard,” added Rubín. “Matt always brings me the opportunity to search new paths on my art, to play with the storytelling and made me grow up as artist. This is the third or fourth time that we work together, and I'm pretty sure that it won't be the last." Space Scouts #1 (of 3) will be available in comic shops on November 5, 2025 and is now available for preorder from your local comic shop for $7.99.
