Prodigy, the second Millarworld comic series under its new Netflix ownership, will be released December 5, the companies announced. Mark Millar will write and Rafael Albuquerque (who worked with Millar on Huck) will provide the interior art and cover. Ozgur Yildirim will provide a variant cover.
Prodigy will tell the story of Edison Crane, the world’s smartest man, who runs the world’s most successful business and helps governments around the world with problems they can’t handle. Crane is a Nobel-winning scientist, a genius composer, an Olympic-level athlete, and an expert in the occult. "I wanted to write the smartest thing I’ve ever written and at the same time top any action set-pieces I’ve ever managed in the past and I honestly couldn’t be happier with how this has turned out," Millar said in a statement.
The Magic Order, the first series since the Netflix acquisition (see "No Second Printings for Mark Millar’s ‘The Magic Order’"), was released by Image Comics in June and was the #2 book of the month in comic stores, selling over 157,000 copies (see "Top 500 Comics—June 2018"). Prodigy will also be released by Image Comics.
