Dynamite and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products are introducing a new ThunderCats comic book series. ThunderCats: Lost will feature the misfits from Thundera who are just trying to survive in an ever more dangerous world. Ed Brisson and Rapha Lobosco, who collaborated on the popular ThunderCats: Apex special, are teaming on the series. It will debut in March 2025.
Five Thunderian warriors have been shot down in a war zone, and are lost, fighting for their lives as they seek a place of safety. The team is trapped in enemy territory, and they are being hunted by a dangerous enemy in what Dynamite described as, “an essential addition to the flagship title ThunderCats and sister series, SilverHawks.”
“The world that the ThunderCats: Lost team have ventured into is very different from where our mainline ThunderCats are, and the trials and tribulations that they face as a result are unique to this series – though just as exciting and deadly,” Brisson said. “They find themselves trapped in a highly militarized zone, in a world that eschews magic in favor of hyper-advanced technology. This world is ruled with an iron fist, under a cruel dictator with an innate hatred of cats – so much so that they’re hellbent on stamping out this cat invasion before it can take root. The villains they face will be familiar to ThunderCats fans, but you'll have to read to find out just who they’re up against.”
Some of the characters in the comic were introduced in later seasons of the ThunderCats animated series, including Bengali, Pumyra, and Lynx-O. Their origins and connections to the series lore have been tweaked to fit into the comic series. They are joined by new characters Neko and Ligon – the former is a snow leopard who is a skilled warrior, and the latter is a large liger who is both strong and kind.
The series will feature covers by Felipe Massafera, Clayton Henry, Declan Shalvey, Mark Bagley, and Jae Lee. ThunderCats: Lost #1 is solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ January 2025 PREVIEWS catalog.
