THE ONES! THE HARD SELL! JOY!
Hey hey!
So, THE ONES is coming from Jinxworld’s home at Dark Horse comics. Its a new comic full of brand new characters and ideas we’re really excited about.

IGN said: Having tackled many of the biggest franchises at Marvel and DC over the past several decades, writer Brian Michael Bendis is now focusing on creator-owned projects at Dark Horse. His latest new series, The Ones, is a superhero comedy with a truly killer concept.
Co-created with artist Jacob Edgar (Death to the Army of Darkness), The Ones is a story about every hero who was ever told they were "the one" of their particular story - a singular warrior destined to save everything from destruction. It turns out the multiverse only has one, true version of The One, and these various would-be saviors are forced to band together to stop them. In other words, it's the perfect comic for the era of the multiverse in pop culture.

The creative team on The Ones also includes colorist J.K. Diaz and letterer Joshua Reed. The first issue features variant covers from Yanick Paquette…

And Dan Hipp.

“Jacob is an amazing artist and creating this brand-new, fun-as-hell world with him has been one of the greatest delights,” Bendis said in a press release. “Wilson and the rest of The Ones are among my absolute favorite creations I’ve ever been a part of and I can’t wait to introduce you to all of them.”

“I'm beyond thrilled and still geeking out to be teaming with Brian on this project and bringing all these amazing, crazy characters to life,” Edgar said. “I've always felt like comedy in comics is tough to do, but I genuinely laugh out loud reading these scripts as they come in. So, I'm excited for the comics world to get to experience what I've been enjoying. Beyond the comedy, we've got plenty of action coming your way as well, this book is a blast to work on.”

The Ones #1 is slated to hit comic shops and digital storefronts on November 2, 2022.

You can order this comic in any form, in any way you want, but today IS when the comic stores around the country have to place their orders. So today, if you don’t mind, call your store and tell them you want THE ONES!
We even have this awesome surprise LIAM SHARPE variant!
