Firebug
by Johnnie Christmas (Author / Artist), Tamra Bonvillain (Colorist), and Ariana Maher (Letterer)

Booktalk: A volcano goddess, named Keegan, is loose in the world, and the prophecies are unclear whether her coming will bring humanity’s destruction or salvation. In the shadow of the sacred volcano, from which Keegan derives her powers, lies the ancient city of Azar. Promising to hold the key to the mysteries of her past, Keegan and her rag-tag army of devotees must get to Azar before it is overrun by a horde of forest monsters. Meanwhile, The nefarious Cult of the Goddess has plans to summon forces as old as time to extinguish Keegan’s flame permanently.
