We at Multiversity have been fans of Frank Barbiere since he launched “Five Ghosts” at Image many moons ago, and were thrilled when he started his “Astonishing Times” series at comiXology Originals back in 2021. The most recent iteration of the series, ‘The Rise of Kokin’ sees its third issue hit stands on Wednesday, but we’ve got an exclusive first look at the title for you this morning.

Written by Frank Barbiere and Arris Quinones
Plotted by Frank Barbiere, Arris Quinones, and Ruairi Coleman
Illustrated by Ruairi Coleman
Colored by Andrew Cramer
Lettered by Taylor Esposito
Designed by Dylan Todd

Spinning out of the pages of the smash hit series Astonishing Times from Frank J. Barbiere, Arris Quinones, and Ruairi Coleman, Rise of the Kokin tells the story of Kokin, the mysterious cybernetic samurai.

Reeling from the shocking events of the previous issue, Kokin is on the hunt for an assassin. But what he discovers will change everything!

Thanks to comiXology for the preview, and make sure to check out the issue next week!
