Publisher Description: The official prequel to The New York Times bestselling series comes to comics for the first time in October 2020 from BOOM! Studios. The 12-issue limited series will be adapted and scripted by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson, who co-wrote the eponymous prequel novel based on Frank Herbert's notes and illustrated by artist Dev Pramanik (Paradiso) and colorist Alex Guimarães, in partnership with Herbert Properties LLC and in full coordination with Abrams ComicArts, who are publishing in the fall the first of three graphic novel adaptations of Herbert’s original classic novel Dune.
Set in the years leading up to Dune, House Atreides transports readers to the far future on the desert planet Arrakis where Pardot Kynes seeks its ecological secrets in remote, desolate regions of the alien world.
Meanwhile, a violent coup is planned by Shaddam Corrino, the son of Emperor Elrood; far away, an eight-year-old slave Duncan Idaho seeks to escape his cruel masters; and a young man named Leto Atreides begins a fateful journey. These unlikely souls are drawn together first as renegades and then as something more, as they discover their true fate – to change the very shape of history!
Dune: House Atreides #1 features main cover art by Jae Lee (Dark Knight Returns: The Golden Child), variant cover art by Dan Mora (Once & Future), Miguel Mercado (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers) and more. On sale October 21.
