Fall Will Bring An Original Young Adult Graphic Novel From Dark Horse

Exciting news is coming from Dark Horse as they announce the upcoming release of an original young adult graphic novel. This fall, Ethan Young (Nanjing: The Burning City), brings his immense talent to a sci-fi epic full of heart, humor, and heroism with The Battles of Bridget Lee. The story will take readers on a multivolume journey through space as it follows the world's next heroine to great heights.

The story follows Bridget Lee, an ex–combat medic now residing at the outpost Farfall, who just might be the world's last hope. There is no longer a generation that remembers a time before the Marauders invaded Earth. The remaining human outposts have been quiet since they fought back the alien aggressors, but there are stirrings of another attack. However, things won't be cut and dry for our new hero. Bridget will need to overcome her own fears before she can save her people. Her legend begins here.

It's nice to see an original young adult graphic novel coming from Dark Horse. An intentional YA comic genre growing in the comic book world would be better than creators subtly adding trendy details that don't fit into existing storylines to draw younger readers in.

The Battles of Bridget Lee Volume 1: Invasion of Farfall will arrive in stores on September 21, 2016.
