Emerald City Comic Con 2024: Kieron Gillen and Caspar Wijngaard reveal their Power Fantasy

Writer Kieron Gillen and artist Caspar Wijngaard took Emerald City Comic Con by storm on Friday when Gillen shared news of their upcoming series The Power Fantasy. Gillen and Wijngaard were guests of the show and further entertained a queue of enthusiastic fans eager for for more details on this forthcoming series with Image Comics slated for August.

It’s a world where “Superpowered” has a specific meaning. It’s reserved solely for those with the destructive potential of the nuclear arsenal of the most powerful nations on Earth. There are presently six superpowered beings, and the future of the planet is reliant on them never, ever coming into conflict.

With an approach that sits between The Boys and Watchmen and a music video aesthetic, The Power Fantasy #1 will be available at comic book shops in August and across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.
