The Fox returns to comics!

The Fox is coming back!

Hot on the heels of the successful New Crusaders title, Archie's Red Circle imprint will be releasing an all new Fox comic later this year by Dean Haspiel and Mark Waid!

The Fox is my favorite of all the Mighty Crusaders characters, and his absence in The New Crusaders really had me bummed. I'm glad to know now that his lack of appearance there meant he was being primed for his own title! I am fortunate to own his action figure from the 80s toyline and I'm excited to be able to read some new adventures starring the character soon!

Official Press release:

Eisner Award winning writer Mark Waid (Daredevil, Thrillbent) and Emmy winning writer/artist Dean Haspiel (Billy Dogma, HBO’s Bored To Death) are teaming up to launch a brand new series – THE FOX. Taking place in the Red Circle universe, this exciting creative team will deliver an innovative, action-packed superhero story starring the fabled pulp hero.

This thrilling new addition is a shake up to the Red Circle lineup. The previously solicited New Crusaders: Dark Tomorrow will receive a new release date in early 2014. The critically acclaimed New Crusaders series received high praise and year-end “best of” acknowledgements, dubbed "one of the most enjoyable and surprising books on the stands" and response to THE FOX will no doubt echo that sentiment.

The first volume, New Crusaders: Rise of the Heroes, is now available for order in Previews. In addition, this summer’s forthcoming New Crusaders: Legacy TPB features both new and iconic stories including Alex Toth‘s run on The FOX, and contributions from comic book legends Steve Ditko, Carmine Infantino, and more.
