The 12-issue project is a thematic follow-up to King and Gerads’ Mister Miracle, which won multiple awards and was praised for its reimagining of Jack Kirby’s 1970s character and treatment of mental health issues.
“Like Mister Miracle, Strange Adventures is hugely ambitious,” King has said about the new project. “Unlike Mister Miracle, this isn’t another tale of one man’s angst or trauma or recovery. Strange Adventures is fundamentally about something larger, deeper and darker; it’s trying to speak to the nature of truth and how our assumptions about that nature can tear us apart.”
Strange Adventures, which will be released under DC’s Black Label rating, for content aimed at readers 17 and older, will debut March 4. Watch the trailer for the new series below.
