The series will be written by Brandon Easton (Marvel’s Agent Carter, Transformers: Deviations), with art by Tony Vargas (Rot & Ruin). The cover for issue #1 will be done by Tommy Lee Edwards.

“We’ve had tremendous success with IDW over the years in re-launching classic brands for a contemporary audience, while still paying appropriate homage to their origins,” said Michael Kelly, Head of Global Publishing at Hasbro. “We are thrilled to welcome a new team to this library of heroes, as M.A.S.K. joins the ranks of Jem & The Holograms, Micronauts, and The Transformers.”

IDW recently launched Micronauts, and will be launching ROM Comics in July (see “ROM' Series Details Announced”).

Hasbro and Paramount Pictures recently announced the writers for its cross-property cinematic universe, which includes M.A.S.K. (see “Hasbro Assembles Writers Room For Cinematic Universe”).
