Valiant recently announced that Livewire would be getting her own series and it would be an ongoing from the VALIANT BEYOND line of titles coming out. Now we get our first look at some preview pages from the art team that brought us Secret Weapons along with several new covers and the first ever Glass Variant!
Accomplice. Mentor. Savior. And now, Enemy of the State. Seeking to protect other vulnerable super-powered psiots like herself, Livewire plunged the United States into a nationwide blackout with her technopathic abilities, causing untold devastation. After choosing the few over the many, she must now outrun the government she served – and those she once called allies. With the whole world hunting her, what kind of hero will Livewire be…or will she be one at all?
“Amanda has always been such a strong, complex, compelling character, and I personally have been waiting for a long time for her to get her own solo title!” Ayala told THR. “Amanda deserves to shine, and the folks over at Valiant are determined that her first solo book be impactful! And honestly, we need a hero like Amanda right now.”
Also: In keeping with Valiant’s groundbreaking experiments in comic printing technology, LIVEWIRE #1 will also feature its own highly limited Glass Variant Cover – printed via a special multi-colored process on a carefully devised pane of glass, with artwork by superstar artist Doug Braithwaite (Justice)!
Like several titles before it, Valiant will be offering Livewire with a pre-order bundle for issues #1-8. These expanded editions can (and should) be ordered from your local comic shop and come with exclusives like creator commentary, character design artwork and more extras. Just be sure to order before the cut off date, November 26, 2018.
Livewire #1 debuts December 19th from the creative team of Vita Ayala and the art team of Raúl Allén and Patricia Martin.
