by Brendan M. Allen

BOOM! Studios has revealed a preview of Dune– House Harkonnen #4, the latest issue of their new twelve-issue comic book series expanding the rich mythology of Frank Herbert’s Dune. The second official prequel to Dune is adapted for the first time by novelists Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson and artist Michael Shelfer, colorist Patricio Delpeche, and letterer Ed Dukeshire

“Although Leto and Kailea’s blossoming romance brings about the expectation of their first child, political complications put a strain on their thoughts, while a traitor looms in their midst. On Lankiveil, Glossu Rabban turns trophy hunting into what the Harkonnens are known for best–their brutality. And as the years pass, a shadow still follows Leto and Kailea, seeding further discontent, even as an exile from Ix comes seeking help, and maybe even liberation for the planet!”
