Marvel Comics is heading back to the world of Disney for a new series that will land in September with the debut of Figment 2, the first of five issues. This is the latest series that brings Marvel and Walt Disney Imagineering, the Disney Kingdoms line of comics together for something that they can reach beyond the parks, but also have for the parks. The new series has some solid talent attached to it with writer Jim Zub (Figment, Skullkickers) working with artist Ramon Bachs for the next chapter of the property.
“As soon as the first Figment series wrapped up I was bombarded with messages from excited readers asking if there would be more Dreamfinder comic stories,” says series writer Jim Zub. “Thankfully the team at Disney and Marvel saw the spark in our first journey and asked me for ideas on where things could go from there. I’m thrilled that they’ve entrusted me with these cherished characters and can’t wait for readers to dive into new realms of imagination with our creative team.”
Plot concept: Now in the present day, Figment and Dreamfinder must brave the modern world as new and unexpected adventures lie before them. Gone for over 100 years, our imaginative duo have become the stuff of legends. But with their greatest challenge still before them, will their legacy ultimately be their undoing?
A mainstay of Epcot® Theme Park at Walt Disney World® Resort, Figment and the enigmatic inventor Dreamfinder have captivated visitors of Epcot’s Journey Into Imagination attraction for years and Marvel and Disney are proud to continue their exciting story this September! Old friends, reunite, new challenges are met, and a brand new mystery unfolds. All it takes is one little spark to let your imagination soar. Don’t miss the highly anticipated return of the fan-favorite, sold out series when FIGMENT 2 #1 comes to comic shops and digital devices this September!
