Our friends over at BOOM! Studios have given us a first look at this month’s Magic: The Hidden Planeswalker #4. The final issue in the four-issue arc published in partnership with Wizards of the Coast LLC hits comic book stores and digital platforms on July 27, 2022.
The series comes from comic book and screenwriter Mairghread Scott (Transformers, Guardians of the Galaxy), artists Fabiana Mascolo (Firefly: Brand New ‘Verse) and Jacques Salomon (Magic: Master of Metal), colorist Francesco Segala (All-New Firefly) with Gloria Martinelli, and letterer Ed Dukeshire.
The synopsis for issue #4 reads: In the stunning climax, Isona Maive, the recently released Hidden Planeswalker, plans a reckless mission in the most dangerous corner of the multiverse—hoping to save her home plane, even if it imperils the rest of the multiverse. With Liliana’s pupil at the mercy of Tezzeret’s poisonous and misleading whispers, will Liliana have the strength to be a hero, even if it makes her feel like a villain?
Magic: The Hidden Planeswalker #4 features main and variant cover art by acclaimed artist Karen S. Darboe (Bloodline: the Daughter of Blade), Yanick Paquette (Wonder Woman) with Mat Lopes, Ario Anindito (Star Wars: The High Republic), as well as a set of connecting variant cover art by award-winning illustrator Miguel Mercado (Mighty Morphin, Power Rangers).
