BOOM! Studios #RoadtoSanDiego Announcement #7: Warlords of Appalachia

Today brings us the seventh announcement out of ten as we journey on BOOM! Studios #RoadtoSanDiego. Lucky for us, it's another new original series, and it sounds like it's going to be an intense read. The title is Warlords of Appalachia, and it's written by Phillip Kennedy Johnson, with newcomer artist Jonas Scharf.

Here's what it's all about:

"The simmering tensions of a range of current issues, including religious liberties, gun control, and international concerns, boil over at the same time with a new president at the helm, causing a second U.S. Civil War. The New Confederacy is crushed but Kentucky holds out, not recognizing U.S. sovereignty. It is during this tense situation that Chess, the 13-year-old son of Kade Mercer—a mechanic, former National Guard medic, and former MMA fighter—is captured by forces sent by U.S. President Roth, causing Kade to rise up and become the first feudal warlord of Appalachia."

Warlords of Appalachia makes its grand debut in October. In keeping with the other announcements, you can check out the cover and some character designs below…
