In October, Fangoria revealed that Rick Remender and Paul Azaceta were teaming with Image Comics for an “elevated tale of whimsical horror” in The Seasons. Part of Remender’s Giant Generator line of comics, The Seasons will roll out a double-sided first issue in January. Today, Image unveiled a trailer for the new book as part of an official release.
Excitement for the upcoming The Seasons launch from The New York Times bestselling writer Rick Remender (The Sacrificers, Grommets, Deadly Class) and artist Paul Azaceta (Outcast by Kirkman and Azaceta) is ramping up and Giant Generator treated fans last weekend with the surprise drop of an eerie teaser trailer that alludes to an ancient evil at play.
Summer, Winter, Spring and Autumn are the Seasons Sisters, the daughters of the world-renowned Seasons Detectives. Ten years ago, their famous parents disappeared. Left to raise themselves, the sisters formed an unbreakable bond. Now that bond is tested as the sisters fall prey to sinister forces. The youngest sister, Spring, is the last hope of saving them from a fate worse than death. Will Spring be able to piece her shattered family back together before it’s too late for them all?
-Official Synopsis for The Seasons
“Paul and I have worked tirelessly to create a world unlike anything we’ve ever done before,” Remender told Fangoria last month. “Inspired by Miyazaki, Windsor McKay, and Tintin we wanted to make something that was delightful, poignant, and heartfelt,”he continued. “We hope you find the Seasons sisters as charming as we do. And the Ringleader and his imps as devilishly terrifying. Paul and Matheus have delivered one of the most spectacularly vibrant comics you’re going to see in the modern marketplace.”
“The Seasons is a comic that will make you remember why you fell in love with comics in the first place.”
—Robert Kirkman, Invincible, The Walking Dead
