Old myths become new conundrums when a nineteen year-old chess prodigy finds out life isn't a game after she pulls a sword from a stone. Now, the legend of King Arthur is back, reimagined for romance, and set to be a new six-issue mini-series from Dark Horse Comics that kicks off with The Once And Future Queen #1 (JAN170133).

You think you woke up to a new headline this morning? How would you like to find yourself pulling the fabled Excalibur from a rock, and this transforms you into some new badass version of a knight from the age of King Arthur's Camelot? How would you react to being in the company of Fae and Merlin? Whatever CliffsNotes you may have used to brush up on the vernacular of that era are pretty useless, too, as the people in your circle of contemporaries are now East Asian and African besides British heritage. Oh, yeah. And diverse sexual orientations are the norm, too.

No class in Medieval studies could prepare you for this new world that's now brought to you by the creators who previously gave us Amelia Cole!

The Once And Future Queen #1 (JAN170133) from Dark Horse Comics is in comic shops March 1.
