Time for a first look from our friends at BOOM! Studios. The publisher has revealed our first look at Once Upon a Time at the End of the World #7, the next issue of the second story arc, The Rise and Fall of Golgonooza, from New York Times bestselling and Eisner and Harvey Award winning writer Jason Aaron (Thor, The Avengers, Southern Bastards), debuting the new artists for this arc, illustrator Leila del Duca (Wondergirl: Homecoming), colorist Tamra Bonvillain (Sins of the Black Flamingo), and letterer AndWorld Design (Something is Killing the Children). One of the most ambitious creator-owned series to date with three unique artistic teams to take on a vision of the end of the world that’s brutal and nostalgic, whimsical and grounded… and ultimately, timeless.
A secluded suburban community is the last thing Maceo and Mezzy expected to find, especially one so well-preserved and packed with everything one would need to thrive in the wasteland. As more people come to reside in this settlement called Golgonooza, it flourishes, and becomes a home for Mezzy and Maceo, just as they become home to each other. However, the wasteland won’t feel satisfied with being shut out for long…
This month, the book features main and variant cover art by highly acclaimed illustrator Kevin Wada (Specs), and variant cover art by famed artists Cory Godbey (Jim Henson’s The Storyteller: Sirens), and A.C. Esguerra (Eighty Days). Here’s a look at the cover gallery for the issue:
