A Little Bugs Bunny, A Little Beowulf: Red 5 Announces ‘Beorn’
by Brendan M. Allen
Following in the steps of Bone, Thieves & Kings and the best of all ages comic adventure, Red 5 Comics presents Beorn. A pint sized Conan facing full sized adventures and monsters, nothing will keep Beorn or his creator down.
“Red 5 has been the home of great all-ages comics since the days of Atomic Robo and Bodie Troll,” Red 5 co-publisher Joshua Starnes said. “I love those kinds of books, Bone is one of my all time favorites, and I’ve been on the lookout for more of those ever since I came to Red 5. Beorn ticked all of those boxes as soon as I saw it.”
‘Creator Ben Bender’s viking saga sees the titular Beorn fighting for honor and glory in a world of peace. With no chances for battle at home he takes a map to an uncharted island in a quest for adventure. Will he find what he’s looking for?
We think you will, in the pages of Beorn.’
A little bit Bugs Bunny, a little bit Beowulf, Beorn really is something for everyone. Get your first look at the newest Red 5 Comics’ series in this years Free Comic Book Day issue, and then come back for Beorn #1 this May.
