Reprinting the first story arc contained in issues #1-7, this trade
paperback is the perfect introduction for readers who have yet to try this
action-packed series. The trade paperback tells the story of Ethan, a young
prince on the cusp of manhood, who is forced to truly become a man when he is
granted the power of the sigil, and his actions during a ritual combat
tournament become the catalyst for war. On this world where a medieval
façade hides high-tech advancement, follow Ethan and his second, Skink,
as they are sent to the dungeon of their sworn enemy, Bron, only to be freed by
the mysterious Ashleigh. Hunted by Bron, as well as the bounty hunter Exeter,
Ethan tries to find his place in this world now on the brink of war. Does he
return to his family and fight in a war he helped instigate, or does he follow
Ashleigh and her Underground movement to free the Lesser Races? Ethan never
thought his first days of manhood would be so complicated and filled with so
much excitement. Loads of action, intrigue and some of the most spectacular
battle scenes ever portrayed on the four-color page make Scion a must
read for comic fans everywhere. Also included is a complete cover gallery, and
humorous anecdotes by Ron Marz, Jim Cheung, Don Hillsman II, and Caesar
Rodriguez on the making of this great storyline. Colored by Caesar Rodriguez,
Paul Mounts. Fully painted cover by Adam Hughes.
