ONCE & FUTURE #1-30 (Kieron Gillen / Dan Mora)

L’ex-chasseuse de monstres Bridgette McGuire sort de sa retraite lorsqu’un ancien artefact est découvert dans un site archéologique, déclenchant une série d’événements qui menacent la sécurité du monde. Et cette fois, elle doit faire équipe avec son petit-fils, Duncan…

Légendes arthuriennes, monstres, romance, secrets de famille et une grand-mère badass…c’est le programme de Once & Future, nouvelle mini-série Boom! Studios par Kieron Gillen (The Wicked + The Divine) et Dan Mora (Klaus).

The discovery of an ancient artifact at an archaeological site sets off a chain of events that puts the world in danger as a ruthless group of Nationalists attempt to raise a villain from Arthurian legend with the hope of gaining power, and fulfilling a long-standing prophecy for England. The only ones who can stop them are Bridgette McGuire, ex-monster hunter, and her grandson Duncan, who is soon swept up into a world of magic and myth as he comes face-to-face with the legends from England’s past and his own complicated family history.
