BOOM! Studios today revealed a first look at JIM HENSON’S THE DARK CRYSTAL: AGE OF RESISTANCE #4, the latest issue in a new comic book series, introducing an explosive story leading up to the events of The Jim Henson Company’s new Netflix series The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. Delve into the secret history of the world of Thra and its inhabitants before the Age of Resistance.

Enter a world of wonder, danger, and excitement with writer Nicole Andelfinger (Adventure Time), artist Esdras Cristobal (Rugrats), colorist Rod Fernandes, and letterer Jim Campbell as they uncover an epic story from the world of Thra in the time before Age of Resistance. War and chaos reign over the once peaceful land and Gelfling everywhere must fight for the survival of their clans against the terrifying Arathim.

Ordon, a mighty Gelfling warrior, and a young stowaway, Fara, set off on a quest to retrieve the one item that could save their kind. Now, with the end of their quest in sight, Ordon and Fara finally have hope that they will be able to save their village. But the journey home proves just as treacherous, and the two of them may arrive too late to stop the destruction of everything they love...
