Denis Villeneuve’s Dune may have been delayed well into 2021, but Boom! Studios launches its new comic book series Dune: House Atreides from Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson this coming week, and you can check out a preview of the first issue right here…
Set in the years leading up the Hugo and Nebula Award-winning Dune-which inspired the upcoming feature film from Legendary Pictures- DUNE: HOUSE ATREIDES transports readers to the far future on the desert planet Arrakis where Pardot Kynes seeks its secrets. Meanwhile, a violent coup is planned by the son of Emperor Elrood; an eight-year-old slave Duncan Idaho seeks to escape his cruel masters; and a young man named Leto Atreides begins a fateful journey. These unlikely souls are drawn together first as renegades and then as something more, as they discover their true fate – to change the very shape of history!
Dune: House Atreides #1 goes on sale on October 21st.
