It’s no exaggeration to say that the ThunderCats comic has been a tremendous success from Dynamite Entertainment since it launched almost two years ago resulting in various one-shots and miniseries. To that end, Dynamite has announced that Panthro, team’s cerebral yet physically formidable master of mechanics, will be headlining his own one-shot special this November from writer Ed Brisson and artist Dave Acosta.Â
Full press release details below:
The cerebral yet physically formidable master of mechanics, vehicles, and even their latest armored suits in the comics, Panthro has long been a favorite of fans across ThunderCats fandom. Now for the first time in Dynamite’s line of comics, he’s getting the spotlight solely to himself for an extra-size 28 pages of story!
Amidst a brief respite from his responsibilities, by himself beyond the boundaries of the Cats Lair, suddenly the powerful Panthro finds himself beset by a pack of imposing, hostile creatures. As a battle-hardened warrior, on paper this should be a fun distraction. But the true scope of the danger continues to unfurl, as the hunter becomes the hunted and a massive secret could spell doom for all Thunderans on their adopted home of Third Earth!
Ed Brisson (ThunderCats Lost, New Mutants, Predator) effortlessly highlights what makes this character such a gem amongst the deep, diverse cast of ThunderCats with his new story. He’s joined by the artwork of Dave Acosta, known for his evocative epics of Elvira, Mistress of the Dark and horror stylings. He’s the perfect match for this story of monsters and intrigue, filled with plenty of brawling.Â
To portray the cunning warrior and his deadly nunchucks, four fabulous covers are available for fans and collectors. Acosta handles one, and is joined by Sebastian Piriz (Space Ghost x Jonny Quest), Robert Quinn, and Will Robson.
Panthro also appears regularly in the flagship ThunderCats series, which will have issue #22 also comes out in November. The comics franchise will also release Brisson’s own ThunderCats Lost #9 the same month.
