BOOM! Studios’ best-selling Farscape series enters its second year with a fresh dose of bad attitude with the premiere of Farscape: Scorpius – coming this April! Written by show creator Rockne S. O’Bannon, Farscape: Scorpius brings one of the greatest sci-fi villains of all time to his own ongoing series.

An excellent new entry point for Farscape fans that might have missed the previous BOOM! Farscape series, Farscape: Scorpius finds everyone’s favorite black leather clad villain – Scorpius – deposed from his throne on Hyneria and making a bold new discovery that could put him back on top of the Uncharted Territories!

Written by series creator Rockne S. O’Bannon and scripted by fan-favorite Star Trek novelist David Alan Mack, Farscape: Scorpius is the must have book of this spring.

“Fans of Farscape who’ve always wondered what’s going on in that sick little black leather clad head of Scorpius’s are in for a real treat. And readers who are new to Farscape but whose tastes run toward the freakish, shocking, and totally unsettling should find the Scorpius books the perfect dark entry into the ongoing Farscape world,” said Farscape show creator and Farscape: Scorpius writer Rockne S. O’Bannon.

“Our goal with the Farscape comics is always ‘what is going to blow fans’ minds?’ When Rockne told me his idea for this series I knew everyone reading these comics would freak,” said Farscape comics editor Ian Brill. “Farscape has some of the best fans in sci-fi and they deserve great stories. With Farscape: Scorpius, Rockne and David Alan Mack are delivering a thrilling and intense experience. This is a book befitting the genius creation that is Scorpius.”

“What the creative team on Farscape: Scorpius is accomplishing is exactly what attracted BOOM! to Farscape in the first place…phenomenal sci-fi adventures in a mythology that knows no bounds,” said BOOM! Studios Managing Editor Matt Gagnon. “Scorpius is always defined in our minds as John Crichton’s resilient antagonist, but Rockne and the team, from the first issue, will prove that there’s more to our favorite half-Scarran, half-Sebacean than meets the eye.”

Debuting on the SCI-FI Channel in 1998, Farscape follows the adventures of astronaut John Crichton, who has a freak accident during an experimental space mission that catapults him across a thousand galaxies to an alien battlefield. Suddenly, he’s trapped among alien creatures wielding deadly technology – a battle that 20th century sci-fi pop culture never prepared him for. Hunted by a merciless military race led by Scorpius, Crichton begins his quest for home from a distant galaxy.
