Battle Chasers Issue #10 Announced by Joe Madureira

The moment we've all been waiting for! Today Joe Madureira put up a teaser image for Battle Chasers #10 on his social media channels. The image depicts Red Monika, Calibretto, Garrison, and Knolan in the background with Gully front and centre. Her gauntlets are glowing red with energy and the "#10" is within the electric linework.

Battle Chasers #9 was released back in September 2001, and over the years Joe has wanted to come back to the series to at least finish off the cliffhanger and story that the book ended with. In the meantime Joe has been very successful in the video game industry and even released a Battle Chasers JRPG/dungeon crawler called Battle Chasers: Nightwar that was initially funded by kickstarter.

Interviews with Joe over the last 10 years, journalists asked many times about the future of Battle Chasers and whether or not he would return to the series. Those answers varied over that time and most recently he mentioned potentially getting another artist on the book to help him out since his time is dedicated to his video game work.

And here we are! March 2, 2021, almost 20 years since issue 9 came out and Joe Mad! drops this bomb for all his fans. 

It seems Joe has brought help with this announcement by bringing on Ludo Lullabi who is a freelance artist that works in comics and video games. He's drawn for Blizzard, Gunfire Games, and Airship Syndicate on games like World of Warcraft, Hearthstone, Darksiders, and of course Battle Chaser's Nightwar!

It's an exciting moment for Battle Chaser's fans and I can't wait to see what's revealed next!
