The Eisner Award nominated The Power Fantasy by multiple award winning writer Kieron Gillen and fan-favorite artist Caspar Wijngaard, and published by Image Comics, will kick off a pulse-pounding new story arc with issue #12 next month. This new chapter will center around the enigmatic Etienne Lux character.
In The Power Fantasy #12, readers are drawn deeper into the chaos of Etienne Lux’s world—where the stakes are high and the consequences unimaginable. The issue opens with a gripping new development, brought on by the fallout of previous betrayals and power plays, and sets the stage for unpredictable confrontations to come.
Gillen and Wijngaard’s The Power Fantasy is a Cuban Missile Crisis scenario reimagined through a cracked mirror of superhuman paranoia and ideological brinkmanship—except instead of nuclear warheads, the world teeters on the edge of annihilation at the hands of the weaponized superpowered few.
Locked in a deadly chess match over ideology and survival, The Power Fantasy builds a world where superpowered beings are the arms race—living warheads of ego, trauma, and propaganda.
The Power Fantasy‘s characters are trapped in a zero-sum game where escalation is easier than empathy, and every move risks planetary fallout. Trust is a luxury, diplomacy is performance, and every moment is a gamble with extinction.
The Power Fantasy #12 Cover A by Wijngaard (Lunar Code 0825IM0300) and The Power Fantasy #12 Cover B by Chloe Brailsford (Lunar Code 0825IM0300) will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, October 8.
