Once & Future #8

ONCE & FUTURE #8, out this Wednesday from Boom! Studios, is about to take an even darker turn than ever. The perfect Knight Duncan is not, but he may be setting up to face one. Not to mention all of the other creatures going bump in the night.

All things considered, Duncan has taken well to the transition in his life. Once he was a man with a boring life and an estranged family. Now he’s hunting monsters with his grandmother, and acting like that’s totally normal.

Perhaps because, for this family, that actually is normal. A good day is a day you get to walk back home on your own two legs. A lesson that Duncan has already learned, despite his short period of time spent out on the field.

That being said, Once & Future #8 is about to test Duncan in ways he never could have prepared for. His grandmother too, for that matter. This is not a typical tale of monsters versus men. No, this is what happens when stories come to life.
