Freex #17

In "Call Him Mr. Thebes," the Freex are mysteriously transported to ancient Egypt, where they're revered as deities—only to encounter a half-woman, half-snake figure, a ghostly flyer, and a startlingly familiar face that mirrors their lost teammate Boom Boy. As they uncover secrets about their own origins beneath the sands, they face Rune, a vampire posing as a priest with a deadly hunger, before returning home changed—now with a fifth member, A.J., and a fractured timeline to navigate. Written by Gerard Jones and illustrated by Scott Kolins, with inks by Jon Holdredge and Scott Reed, colors by Violent Hues and Emily Yoder, and letters by Lorina Mapa, the issue's cover by Scott Kolins and Jon Holdredge captures the mythic tension of their journey.
