Promethea #1
This Spanish-language edition collects the first story arc of Alan Moore and J.H. Williams III's acclaimed series, following college student Sophie Bangs as she becomes the latest host for the mythical warrior goddess Promethea. The volume explores themes of imagination, magic, and the power of storytelling through Williams' innovative artwork and Moore's dense, philosophical narrative. It includes the initial issues of the original 1999-2005 DC Comics series, presented here in a deluxe hardcover format by ECC Ediciones.
"La ciudad radiante y celestial" introduces a pivotal moment in the Promethea saga, with Alan Moore and J. H. Williams III crafting a dreamlike narrative where Sophie’s quest to interview Barbara Shelley spirals into a surreal confrontation with a Smee. As the story unfolds, the line between identity and myth blurs when Sophie writes a poem and becomes Promethea—just in time to face the threat—while a young girl in Roman Alexandria takes her first step as the original Promethea. The cover by J. H. Williams III and Mick Gray captures the story’s otherworldly tone, matching the intricate art and layered storytelling of this 2016 release.
