Dynamite’s millionaire martial artist returns in this week as writer Fred Van Lente and artist Jonathan Lau launch a new Peter Cannon Thunderbolt series, and you can get yourself a sneak peek at the first issue below with the official preview…
As a child, Peter Cannon grew up in the secluded culture of “The Awakened,” a isolated movement blending New Age psychology, Tibetan Buddhism, extreme fitness, and other esoteric disciplines. But when a mass suicide wiped out almost all of the Awakened’s followers, an orphaned and abandoned Peter was left to find his own way in the world.
Now, years later, the last surviving member of a mysterious mystical order arrives in New York City on a mission of revenge. His target? The renegade master who destroyed his clan — Peter Cannon! But taking out the fabled Lightning Vessel of the Awakened is easier said than done — especially considering that Cannon’s mind-and-body-perfected moves can collapse time and defy death itself!
Featuring harmoniously honed cover art by ROBERT QUINN, JONATHAN LAU, and DAVE ACOSTA, each issue of Peter Cannon Thunderbolt will also include a special Icon cover from master painter ALEX ROSS!
Peter Cannon Thunderbolt #1 goes on sale on November 12th, priced $4.99.
