IDW Announces New "Casey & April" Mini Series

Tweet

Beginning in June, IDW will be publishing a special four-issue mini series featuring Casey Jones and April O'Neil. In an exclusive interview with IDW, writer Mariko Tamaki and artist Irene Koh give some background on this story that sees April and Casey on a road trip to the southwest.

When asked for details about the dangers that Casey and April will encounter while on the hunt for Pantheon-related answers, Tamaki kept things vague but did offer a hint at the kinds of threats our heroes will encounter. "Well, when you're dealing with the Pantheon, you're dealing with some supernatural level challenges," said Tamaki. "It's a battle of minds and will." 

Potentially more pressing than the dangers that April and Casey will run into on this road trip are the relationship problems that the couple will confront in the series. "April and Casey are lovers in a dangerous time," said Tamaki. "The question is, what does it mean to be in love when it's not such a dangerous time? What does it mean to have love last?"
