Skybound has provided a look at the variant covers for Void Rivals #1, the new series by Robert Kirkman (The Walking Dead) and Lorenzo De Felici (Kroma). Kirkman and De Felici, who previously collaborated on Oblivion Song, are joined on the new series by colorist Matheus Lopes (Step by Bloody Step) and letterer Rus Wooton (Fire Power).

“Void Rivals takes every element fans expect from Skybound comics – incredible worlds, dynamic characters, and jaw-dropping twists – and kicks off our first shared universe,” SVP, Publisher Sean Mackiewicz said. “This comic is the start of something we’ll be talking about for years to come.” 

The shared universe will include a surprise that will be revealed when the series debuts on June 14, 2023.

“In Void Rivals, war rages around the Sacred Ring, where the last remnants of two worlds have collapsed around a black hole in a never-ending war,” the synopsis reads. “However, when pilot Darak and his rival Solila both crash on a desolate planet, these two enemies must find a way to escape together. But are they alone on this strange planet? And what dark forces await that threaten the entire universe?”

Void Rivals #1 comes with a main cover by De Felici with variants by Ethan Young, Matteo Scalera, Karen S. Darboe, a 1:50 incentive cover by Jim Cheung and Jay David Ramos, a blank sketch cover, and a 1:100 incentive cover by Daniel Warren Johnson. That last cover is a spoiler variant and Skybound will not reveal the cover art until the first issue is released.
