‘The Power Fantasy’ #1 Sells Out Ahead Of Release With Second Printing On The Way

News is in that ahead of tomorrow’s release date (7th August, 2024) The Power Fantasy #1 by Kieron Gillen and Caspar Wijngaard has sold out at the distributor level, with a second printing ordered.

Speaking of this deserved success Gillen said;

“We’ve been striving to make this as good as we can. To find the market respond to that? It’s heartening. We can’t wait to get this into as many people’s hands as possible. It’s an explosive book, so it’s great to see it explode like this.”

Briefly, here’s a taste of what the series is about:

“A daringly uncompromising new superhero hero epic, The Power Fantasy offers an edge-of-your seat read in which every character is a nuclear weapon on the brink of detonation… And the entire planet is on high alert.

It’s a world where “Superpowered” has a specific meaning. It’s reserved solely for those with the destructive potential of the nuclear arsenal of the most powerful nations on Earth. There are presently six superpowered beings, and the future of the planet is reliant on them never, ever coming into conflict.”

The Power Fantasy #1 will be available at comic book shops this week with The Power Fantasy #1, second printing out and and The Power Fantasy #2 on Wednesday, September 11th from Image Comics with the latter having the following covers:

• The Power Fantasy #2 Cover A by Wijngaard
