The Story…
Tossed out by her foster family after one-too-many rides home in the back of a cop car, Hunter packs up her meager belongings and sets out on a mission: stop drifting and find out who she is.
That journey turns out to be more like a trip down the rabbit hole, as she’s introduced to a covert world of magic and danger running parallel to our own, complete with undead rock stars, a pair of sorcerer brothers with questionable morals, and a prophecy that puts her at the top of an ancient vampire coven’s hit list.
Hunter came looking for answers. What will become of her once she gets them?
From writer Jenna Lyn Wright:
Cult of Ikarus is my love letter to spooky kids who wish the monsters they read about were real. Scout is the perfect place to tell a badass genre story with some teeth, and I couldn’t be more excited to be partnering with them on this!
From artist Karl Slominski:
Scout is putting out some of the industry’s most dynamic and engaging stories from creators that are actively levelling-up the quality of sequential art in the modern comics landscape. It’s an absolute THRILL to have Ikarus joining their roster.
