Dark Horse Comics announced the August 2024 release of ‘Patra, a new horror mini-series by James Robinson and Scott Kolins.
In this new horror series, a young girl named ‘Patra wakes up with no memory of her past. All she knows is that a big knife and a horrific mask appear whenever she’s in danger. Oh, that, and a deranged killer, in the tradition of 1980s slasher films, who is slaughtering families in a small mid-western town, and wants to make Patra his victim too.
According to the publisher, ‘Patra is the first of several new creator-owned comics series Robinson will helm, with more arriving in the Fall of 2024 and into 2025.
“I’m so thrilled to begin my many new series at Dark Horse with ‘Patra and to work with the incredible Scott Kolins,” said Robinson in a press release. “I love that we’re tipping our hats to the many slasher characters from the 1980s while also focusing on one young girl who must face this horror, growing in strength and confidence all the while, as she also solves the mystery of her own existence. I really wanted to do a horror book with some real heart and emotion to it, and I think with Scott, we’ve done just that.”
‘Patra #1 (of 4) arrives on August 21, 2024, and will have a cover price of $4.99.
