Within Temptation Comic Release Adapted From Resist Album And Virtual Aftermath Concert
JAKARTA - Symphonic Metal band, Within Temptation brings its unique vision about the future to comic fans with a new series from Opus Comics based on their album, Resist (2019) and the 2021 virtual concert, Aftermath.
Designated in a distant future, endless fighting rages between two advanced humanoid species but inherently ruled by techno-organic matriarks on the one hand, and the cruel race of alien-made intelligence on the other.
Various conflicting stories to paint portraits of the life of the leader and his struggle to balance what he created with the impossible forces that formed him.
To take this story to the comic book page, Within Temptation collaborates with famous writer YA Marieke Nijkamp and heavy metal artists Montos to perfect their dystopia world.
The vocalist and co-founder of Within Temptation, Sharon Den Adel said: "The Burge cover star, Genesis is on our stage and in a different merchandise design, and now she will take you to the biggest search of her life in both of our subsequent albums as well as in our comic book series.
"Cooperating with Opus on this seems to be a logical decision, because they are a heavyweight in making comic books and only work with the best designers and donors. We can't wait to show you the final result! We hope you enjoy it like us," he said in an official statement.
The first release will be available in a limited edition print featuring the cover of an exclusive numbered foil by Agustin Alessio (Star Wars, Avengers, Thor: God Of Thunder) directly from the Indendium Online. For a wider retail release, it will be available in the comic store in May.
