LOS ANGELES, CA (September 23, 2019) – BOOM! Studios revealed a first look at ONCE & FUTURE #3, the latest issue in the critically acclaimed series from New York Times bestselling writer Kieron Gillen (The Wicked + The Divine, Star Wars) and Russ Manning Award-winning artist Dan Mora (Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Klaus), following retired monster hunter Bridgette McGuire and her unsuspecting grandson Duncan as they fight against a rising evil that plans to take over their country to bring it back to its former glory.
Duncan and his Gran were too late to stop the Nationalists, and now the ancient King is awake, looking to take power over his land once again and unite it under his rule—spelling disaster for Britain.
