Oni Press announced it will publish the popular Webtoon series, SubZero by Junepurrr, in September 2024.
SubZero volume 1 will collect episodes 0-25 of the webcomic, and will also feature never before published back matter material.
“SubZero is a love letter to fantasy stories, palace dramas and romance, created as an escape during a very low period in my life,” said Junepurrr in a press release. “While the characters possess fantastical Dragon powers, the story deals with themes of duty, sacrifice, and the true strength that lies beneath a veil of fangs and scales. It is my greatest hope that readers of SubZero will find the escape and excitement I felt when I created it.”
To save her people, Princess Clove will have to do the unthinkable—marry her greatest enemy! Clove is the last remaining heir of her Cerulean Dragon clan, fighting in a seemingly endless 300-year-war against the vast Crimson Empire. With no end to the war in sight, Clove agrees to leave her sheltered homeland in favor of a political marriage with the heir to the enemy Crimson Dragon clan, Prince Kyro.
Raised on the battlefields and feared by his rivals, the cutthroat prince is first to notice that Clove is hiding a dangerous secret she’s worked tirelessly to protect. As tensions rise between these unlikely allies, the fragile peace brokered by their marriage is threatened by those who wish to continue the war. Now fighting in the world of her enemies (and fighting a surprising attraction to Kyro), Clove discovers that achieving peace is far more dangerous than she could have ever imagined.
SubZero Volume 1 arrives on September 5, 2024.
