BOOM! Studios sent Major Spoilers this first look at the upcoming The Avant-Guards which roll into stores in January 2019.
Olivia “Liv” Bates is determined to jump-start the first basketball league ever for art colleges, and while the Georgia O’Keeffe College of Arts and Subtle Dramatics isn’t necessarily known for its team sports, she’s got all the missing pieces except one: the final member of her basketball team. Which is where new student Charlie Bravo comes in.
Charlie is a recent transfer to the historic women’s art college and, for some mysterious reason, has decided to leave her glory days as a basketball star behind. If only Liv can convince a reluctant Charlie to lace up her shoes and get back on the court with their ragtag team, her dream of an art school basketball team could come alive! And Charlie might just find the friendship and community she’s looking for at this brand new school.
The Avant-Guards #1 is written by Carly Usdin and artist Noah Hayes, and will arrive in stores on January 23, 2019.
