DUST OFF YOUR MAGIC AND CHECK INTO THE MAYNARD HOTEL THIS FALL IN “WELCOME TO THE MAYNARD”
Celebrated Starman scribe James Robinson and Super Friend’s J. Bone bring a new supernatural and magical mystery series to Dark Horse!
Dark Horse Comics presents Welcome to the Maynard, a new fantasy mystery series from Eisner Award-winner James Robinson (‘Patra, Starman) and Eisner Award-winner J. Bone (Batman: The Audio Adventures, Super Friends). Penned by Robinson, illustrated by Bone, colored by Ian Herring (Minor Threats, Masterpiece), and lettered by Jim Campbell, the first issue in this enchanting series featuring magic, mystery, spells, sorcery, and first-class hotel room service arrives November 2024. Issue #1 will be available with cover art by J.Bone and a variant cover by Chris Samnee.
“Welcome to the Maynard!”
The Maynard is a hotel unlike any other, a place where every guest and staff member has magic in their veins. It’s a hotel for magicians, witches, and otherworldly beings. It’s also where Phillipa (Pip) Dale begins her first day as the hotel’s new bellhop (and trainee house detective). She’s immediately sent on the hunt for a magical hotel thief whose daring thefts are part of a much bigger mystery, one that could turn deadly at any moment. And that’s just one of the many challenges and perils Pip must face in her new job in the magical Maynard Hotel, a wonderful, thrilling, fun place… so please come in and stay a while.
The series reunites Robinson with J. Bone, whose clean-line style evoking European comics, brings an added bright energy to this series. While Welcome To The Maynard has magical mystery and danger, it is also a book filled with hope and joy, and is written to appeal to all ages, young and old.
“It’s a thrill to be reunited with my dear friend J. Bone,” said Robinson. “I love his art and his collaborative spirit, both, so Welcome To The Maynard has been a joy to write. I’m also excited to do a series (akin to Leave It To Chance, back in the day) that can be enjoyed on different levels, by readers young and old.”
Welcome to the Maynard #1 (of 4) will arrive in comic shops on November 27, 2024 and is now available to preorder at your local comic shop for $4.99.
