Series co-creator Declan Shalvey, known for “Deadpool vs. Old Man Logan,” “Moon Knight,” and “Savage Town,” returns to the writing chair for “Time Before Time” and will also be contributing the main covers for the first issue. For Shalvey, this new book offers him an opportunity to elevate two emerging young creators. Speaking of his collaborators, Shalvey said “I loved what this team did on ‘Write It In Blood’ so I’m really excited to take that crew and work on something more ambitious. This is a book with miles of potential, brilliantly realized by Joe Palmer and [colorist] Chris O’Halloran. Their work to me, looks like the baby of Aeon Flux and ‘Hellboy.’” He went on to say “With ‘Time Before Time,’ Rory and myself get to write a crime drama that’s injected with even more dramatic twists and the compelling visuals that sci-fi provides.”
Joining Shalvey is writer Rory McConville, who said, “Time travel stories are my favourite part of sci-fi and getting to write on with so many twists and turns is incredibly thrilling. Joe and Chris continue to be a fantastic combo.” Artist Joe Palmer said “In ‘Time Before Time,’ Declan and Rory have written a time hopping adventure in which the past can’t be altered, so the emotional stakes are always high. The whole team has put a lot of love into this book, and I’m really excited for readers to be able to get their hands on it. Buckle up, because this wild ride goes all over the place.”
“Time Before Time” #1 will be released on May 12, and be available with a variant cover by John Paul Leon.
