Esta serie también será la primera ambientada fuera de Twilight City, mostrando un nuevo rincón del mundo con Meteor Falls. El guionista y autor de cómics Heath Corson (Animal Kingdom, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe) escribirá la historia con ilustraciones de I.N.J Culbard (Tales from the Umbrella Academy: You Look Like Death, Salamandre) y rotulación del veterano de Minor Threats Nate Piekos

Acerca de The Brood:

Napoleón Arquímedes es el archienemigo de The Searcher, y ha luchado contra ella hasta detenerla durante más de cuatro décadas en la metrópolis futurista de Meteor Falls. Pero ahora, mientras se enfrenta a su mortalidad, se ve obligado a nombrar un sucesor de sus tres extraordinarios hijos: Athena, Benjamin y Spookshow. Cada uno es brillante, astuto... y lo suficientemente desafortunado como para ser el hijo del mayor supervillano del mundo.

Verás, Napoleón creía que era lo suficientemente inteligente como para tenerlo todo: que podía criar una familia Y conquistar el mundo. Entonces pensó: ¿por qué no combinarlos? Tomar a los niños como socios. Crear una dinastía... Nada de esto salió según lo planeado. ¿Quién se alzará por encima de la traición, el fracaso y la disfunción para apoderarse del negocio familiar?

Esta improbable historia de mayoría de edad lucha con las conmociones cerebrales y las repercusiones de ser criado por una mente criminal única en una generación. ¿Crees que tu padre es manipulador, frío y exigente? Espera a conocer a Napoleón.

"Las dos principales influencias fueron Succession y luego Royal Tenenbaums de Wes Anderson, que se pueden ver claramente en el arte y la paleta de colores de Ian", dijo Corson. "La idea surgió cuando estaba viendo la película y pensando: ¿Qué pasaría si esta fuera la historia continua de Lex Luthor de Gene Hackman? ¿Qué pasaría si se casara con la Sra. Teschmacher, tuviera tres hijos y tratara de criarlos en el negocio familiar? Entonces, la prole de Napleon siempre fue su gran idea: tener una dinastía. Con el tiempo, sobrevivirás a los héroes... Y GANARÁS”.

From the World of Minor Threats: The Brood #1 llegará a las tiendas el 11 de diciembre de 2024. Ya está disponible para reservar en tu tienda de cómics local por $4,99.

NOTA DE PRENSA OFICIAL ORIGINAL

THE MINOR THREATS FAMILY GROWS WITH “FROM THE WORLD OF MINOR THREATS: THE BROOD”

From the World of Minor Threats: The Brood

A tie-in to the hit Minor Threats series in the style of Succession with

supervillains!

MILWAUKIE, Ore., (August 22, 2024)—Dark Horse Comics presents From the World of Minor Threats: The Brood, a new coming-of-age story set in the world of Patton Oswalt and Jordan Blum’s Minor Threats. This series will also be the first set outside Twilight City, showing off a new corner of the world with Meteor Falls. Screenwriter and comic author Heath Corson (Animal KingdomHe-Man and the Masters of the Universe) will pen the story with illustrations by I.N.J Culbard (Tales from the Umbrella Academy: You Look Like Death, Salamandre), and letters by Minor Threats veteran Nate Piekos. The Brood #1 will also feature cover art by Scott Hepburn (available in both standard and foil covers), I.N.J. Culbard, John K. Snyder lll, Christian Ward (1:10 incentive variant), and one more to be revealed at a later date.

 

About The Brood:

 

Napoleon Archimedes is the archnemesis of The Searcher, and he’s fought her to a standstill for over four decades in the futuristic metropolis of Meteor Falls. But now, as he confronts his mortality, he’s forced to name a successor from his three extraordinary children: Athena, Benjamin, and Spookshow. Each is brilliant, cunning...and unlucky enough to be the child of the world’s greatest supervillain.

 

See, Napoleon believed he was smart enough to have it all: that he could raise a family AND conquer the world. Then he thought: why not combine them? Take the kids on as partners. Create a dynasty. …None of it went according to plan. Who will rise above the betrayal, failure, and dysfunction to seize the family business?

 

This unlikely coming-of-age story wrestles with the concussions and repercussions of getting raised by a once-in-a-generation criminal mind. Think your father is manipulative, cold, and demanding? Wait until you meet Napoleon.

 

“The two major influences were Succession and then Wes Anderson's Royal Tenenbaums, which you can very much see in Ian's art and color palette,” said Corson. “The idea came when I was watching the film and thinking: What if this was the continuing story of Gene Hackman's Lex Luthor? What if he married Ms. Teschmacher, had three children, and tried to raise them in the family business? So, Napleon's brood was always his big idea: Have a dynasty. Eventually, you'll outlive the heroes... AND WIN.”

 

From the World of Minor Threats: The Brood #1 arrives in stores on December 11, 2024. It is now available to pre-order from your local comic shop for $4.99.

 

Praise for Minor Threats and From the World of Minor Threats:

"The Alternates is the rare comic spinoff that not only continues the magic of its flagship series but manages to work as something unique and accessible. Unsurprisingly, Patton Oswalt, Jordan Blum, and Tim Seeley all nail the script, hooking you into the characters and the narrative immediately. Coupled with Christopher Mitten and Tess Fowler's ambitious and scrappy art, this issue is great, plain and simple."—Comicbook.com

 

"Barfly #1 is a delightful addition to the world of Minor Threats. With its outstanding writing, stunning visuals, and memorable characters this comic is a true work of art. If the next three issues are anything like the premiere issue, we are in for one hell of a ride and is in serious contention for our comic book of the year!"—Capes & Tights

 

“If you’re looking for a new comic world to explore filled with comedy, crime, generational trauma, and insanely unique superpowers, all drawn with gorgeously detailed art…then this is the comic for you!” Nerd Initiative on Minor Threats: The Fastest Way Down

 

Minor Threats: The Fastest Way Down #1 expands upon one of the most interesting superhero books on the stands, and it isn't afraid to shake things up.”—AIPT Comics
