    Just when you thought the magic was over…

    Volume 2 of Michael Turner’s smash action adventure fantasy series, SOULFIRE, arrives at its second issue! The secret of magic has all but evaporated into a world of fear, chaos, and disorder. Believing the mother dragon Marigold is Rainier’s mechanical beast that wreaked havoc on San Francisco and Tokyo, the Chinese Sir Strike Force attacks the maternal creature of magic with all it’s might. However, Grace and Seph help balance the scales in the dragon’s favor as the two forces battle over the skies of China. On the bleak Eighth Continent, Benoist foregoes the help of Dylan and PJ to search for his long lost mentor. Meanwhile, a new female arrival to our group creates a rift between Mal and Sonia and more about Rainier’s dark origin is revealed!

    As this new volume of SOULFIRE continues, several familiar names are bringing the wonder right to you! Writer J.T. Krul scripts the tale and artist Marcus To (of Fathom: Kiani and Soulfire: Chaos Reign fame) supplies his adept penciling skills. Inker Saleem Crawford and colorist Beth Sotelo provide the perfect combination of style and beauty to complete the entire SOULFIRE package.

    The magic has returned and it’s here to stay. Make sure you’re a part of the next exciting chapter in the storied SOULFIRE mythology!
