Los Angeles Times Book Prize winning writer Alex Segura (Secret Identity) and acclaimed writer and Best Issue Ever podcaster Sara Century will team up with fan-favorite artists Pat Kennedy (Archie) and Dean Kotz (Rocketeer) for a fresh new spin on superheroes in the upcoming The Forgotten Five. This all-new, ongoing series was first announced in an exclusive scoop at CBR last week and is set to launch this December from Image Comics.

"The Forgotten Five is a potent blend of all the kinds of comics and adventures Sara, Pat, Dean, and I loved growing up—with a decidedly modern twist,” said Segura. “The kind of long-running series with simmering subplots, outcast teen angst, and terrifying powers that we were addicted to as readers ourselves. If the New Mutants were an indie comic, you'd have The Forgotten Five."
