The 80s franchise M.A.S.K. is set to return to the world of comic books this fall, with IDW announcing that the Mobile Armored Strike Kommand is getting its own ongoing series from creators Brandon Easton (Agent Carter, Transformers: Deviations) and Tony Vargas (Rot & Ruin, TMNT: Shadows of the Past).
“We are so proud to be able to continue growing the impressive relationship between IDW Publishing and Hasbro with this new M.A.S.K. comic series,” said IDW Managing Editor David Hedgecock. “We can’t wait to bring the high-octane, unique, brand of storytelling to this book that we know fans of M.A.S.K. will expect!”
“We’ve had tremendous success with IDW over the years in re-launching classic brands for a contemporary audience, while still paying appropriate homage to their origins,” added Michael Kelly, Head of Global Publishing at Hasbro. “We are thrilled to welcome a new team to this library of heroes, as M.A.S.K. joins the ranks of Jem and the Holograms, Micronauts, and The Transformers.”
M.A.S.K. #1 is slated for release in November.
