Little Guardians #1
(W) Ed Cho (A) Lee Cherolis
Little Guardians tells the story of two young people switched at birth, unknowingly living each other's lives. One was destined to protect the village from demons and monsters, the other to live a simple life working at the local Item Shop. In this issue, the townspeople prepare for their annual Zucchini Festival, but strange occurrences plague the celebration. Thoom, the award winning farmer, suffers from blackouts where he becomes violent and uncontrollable, while Idem struggles with his guardian training and learns just how dangerous his Summoning Orb can be. Subira, the local shop girl, is visited by a wandering spirit animal that will not leave her alone. All events lead to the showdown at The Zucchini Festival.
