Vault Comics introduced at the moment a brand new e book within the Barbaric universe—Barbaric: Wrong Kind of Righteous, with author Nicholas Eames co-writing with Michael Moreci. Nathan Gooden continues on artwork. The writer first teased artwork and particulars on a full 12 months of its fashionable franchise final 12 months.

Dubbed the Year of the Axe, the writer introduced the first-ever spinoff sequence Queen of Swords, which just lately broke comedian store gross sales information forward of launch. In addition, new arcs had been introduced, and a collaboration with best-selling, Gemmell Award-winning Fantasy creator Nicholas Eames (Kings of Wyld) was teased.

Today, Vault can reveal full particulars round Barbaric: Wrong Kind of Righteous, which unites the unique Barbaric co-creators with Eames for a particular story from the previous which introduces an all-new sentient weapon, and dives into Owen and Axes previous!

“I’ve loved Barbaric since Michael sent me an early look at the first issue. My books, he said, had been an inspiration while writing it, and when I read those pages, I felt right at home. The humour, the heart, the delightfully twisted tropes…It was so much fun” stated Eames. “I’ve been a fan of comics my whole life and have always dreamed of writing my own, so when Michael—and Vault—offered me the opportunity to co-write something set in Barbaric’s world I jumped at the chance. It was, I think, the perfect way to try my hand at a medium I’ve always loved while learning from a writer (and editor) who I greatly admire.”

Story particulars:

Barbaric: Wrong Kind of Righteous is a double-sized one-shot introducing Sir Borys the Righteous Paladin and his trusty, speaking Flail, as he enlists the assistance of Owen, Axe, and Soren on his noble path. There shall be virtuous bloodshed! There shall be wailing protests! There shall be two speaking weapons! And there shall be wyvern burgers served (for higher or worse) with pickles!

Eames continued, “When it came to pitching a story, I sent Michael the first idea that came to mind but promised to brainstorm further—except Michael loved that first idea, since it also served as a means of exploring Barbaric’s lore, especially when it comes to…Well, I suppose you’ll have to read and find out.”

Barbaric: Wrong Kind of Righteous shall be solicited in June for launch this August. Reserve your copy at your favourite comedian store. There will even be two covers accessible from sequence artist Gooden and a variant to be revealed quickly!
