Comics - Indigo children : the new series launches a plot-twisting mystery in march 2023

By Mulder, 16 december 2022

From the critically-acclaimed creative team behind the smash-hit series Youth—Curt Pires, Alex Diotto, and Dee Cunniffe—and up-and-comer Rockwell White (Wyrd) comes an all-new, action-packed mystery/science-fiction series in the upcoming, Indigo Children. This ongoing series will launch in March from Image Comics.

The new series will also feature a lineup of exciting variant covers featuring artwork by Tyler Boss, Tula Lotay, and Jenny Frisson and the series has already been optioned for a feature film, currently in development from Alan Wake producer, Jeff Ludwig.

"I'm ecstatic to be back at Image Comics with Indigo Children—a book that's been meticulously crafted with my closest collaborators Alex and Dee and new members of the team Rockwell and Hassan," said Pires. "We've been working on this book for years—fine tuning and perfecting it and are excited to finally bring it to the world come March 2023."

White added: "I’m incredibly fortunate to work alongside this creative team for my first long-form comic book. It has been a surreal experience writing these characters and stories with Curt over the years and seeing them realized in such spectacular fashion."

Radiant Black meets The Department of Truth in this epic new story that follows journalist Donovan Price as he hunts down the extraordinarily gifted Indigo Children after their mysterious disappearances fifteen years prior.

"I'm thrilled to be back with Team Youth on this new project," said Cunniffe. "A weird little book which has scratched that X-files and Arthur C. Clarke's Mysterious World itch I've had for years!"

Diotto added: "I'm very proud of the work our team has done on this book, and I can't wait for readers to join us in this new adventure!"

Indigo Children #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, March 29.

Indigo Children will also be available across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.
