Boom! Studios Reveals First Look At “Mech Cadets #1”

July 10 — Boom! Studios’ Mech Cadets comic book series has received a lot of attention this year.

Officials with the company announced in May, the famed series, which was co-created by Greg Pak (Robin Island) and Takeshi Miyazawa (Ms. Marvel), is being adapted for a streaming series through Netflix starting Aug. 10. The same month, Boom! Studios re-issued the original Mech Cadet Yu series in the graphic novel, Mech Cadets.

Now next month, on Aug. 9, right before the premiere of the Mech Cadets Netflix series, Boom! Studios will officially relaunch the Mech Cadets series with Mech Cadets #1. In the debut issue of the new series, the story picks up on the heels of the story in the original Mech Cadet Yu story. Olivia has to face her father’s discipline for what she and her fellow cadets did in order to save Earth from the Sharg invasion. Even as the cadets rest and are reunited with their families, their duties are not over, as there is another danger to face, though this one is lethal in its own way.
