Summoners War: Awakening Comic Expands On the World of the Mobile RPG

Skybound Entertainment is returning to the world of the popular mobile game Summoners War. Skybound is teaming with publisher Com2uS to release a second spinoff comic called Summoners War: Awakening.

Summoners War: Awakening is a direct sequel to the original Summoners War: Legacy comic. Awakening reunites writer Justin Jordan (whom you may also recognize from the Luther Strode franchise) and artist Luca Claretti, with Igor Monti (Radiant Black) coloring the series this time.

Summoners War: Awakening continues the story of aspiring summoner Rai. With Legacy having chronicled her origin story, Awakening ups the stakes by leaving Rai and her allies stranded behind enemy lines to deal with everything from sky pirates to one particularly tenacious bounty hunter.

“I’m so excited to explore more of Summoners War in this new series,” said Skybound Editor Amanda LaFranco in a press release. “As a personal fan of all things in the fantasy genre, Summoners War is one of those projects that lets you go big and bold, and really expand out a world, but I also really love Rai’s tenacity and Tomas’ cynicism. Continuing from Summoners War: Legacy, the focus of this story arc, Awakening, is all about Rai developing as a Summoner and finding new abilities, but also growing as a human being. Rai and Tomas have a lot to learn from each other in this arc, and Justin and Luca have developed so many cool new characters and set pieces. I think any fantasy fan can pick this up and enjoy diving into this world.”

Summoners War: Awakening #1 will release on April 19, 2023.

In other Skybound news, the company is set to release the second volume in the Clementine graphic novel series in October 2023. The first book made our list of the best comic book series and graphic novels of 2022, so we have high hopes for the sequel.
