Dark Horse Comics have announced “Spell on Wheels: Just To Get To You,” a sequel to the 2016 series, “Spell on Wheels,” with writer Kate Leth, artist Megan Levens, and colorist Marissa Louise returning. Letterer Rachel Deering will be joining the series in place of Nate Piekos. The sequel will be made up of five issues.

For those unfamiliar with “Spell on Wheels,” it told the story of three witches, Andy, Claire, and Jolene, as they went on a roadtrip searching for a mysterious thief who had stolen all of their magical items. The sequel series will see the trio return to the road again after Claire becomes possessed by a dark presence, and they set out in search of who is responsible.

Leth is best known for writing the original “Spell on Wheels,” as well as “Hellcat” and “Valley Ghouls.” Levens has previously drawn “Madame Frankenstein” and “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.” Louise colored “Hex Wives” and “Grumble.” During the interim, the trio created two “Mysticons” graphic novels for Dark Horse, based on the now concluded Nickelodeon cartoon of the same name.

“Spell on Wheels: Just To Get To You” #1 is scheduled for release on October 9.

The press release is as follows:

MILWAUKIE, Ore. (July 2, 2019)— Your favorite witches are back on the road as powerhouse creators Kate Leth (Patsy Walker, A.K.A. Hellcat), Megan Levens (Angel City, Star Wars Adventures), Marissa Louise (Hex Wives, Grumble), and letterer Rachel Deering come together to bring you another chapter in the Spell on Wheels saga, Spell on Wheels: Just to Get to You!

Andy, Claire, and Jolene hit the highway once again! A dark presence in the west possesses Claire and they’re determined to discover who and why.

As they follow the I-10 towards danger unknown, paranormal problems grow alongside personal ones and the witches grapple with phantoms, family drama, cryptids, crushes and everything in between.

Praise for Spell on Wheels:

“If you have been wishing for more diverse female-led supernatural stories with some of the industry’s top talents behind it then consider your wish granted with Spell on Wheels”—Newsarama

“It’s an interesting brew of a cup full of “Charmed”, a Pinch of “Buffy” and a dash of “Supernatural” – that should please fans of supernatural comics – with a Nancy Drew twist.” – Outright Geekery

“Overall, Spell on Wheels is about witches as real women, and borrowing from Pagan culture is an excellent way to delve into that theme.” – ComicVerse
