Dune: House Harkonnen

In Dune: House Harkonnen (2023–2024, Boom! Studios), Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson expand their prequel saga across twelve issues, delving into the ruthless machinations that shaped the sinister House Harkonnen before the events of Frank Herbert’s classic novel. With striking covers by Raymond Swanland and interior art by Michael Shelfer, this series explores the brutal politics, scheming, and dark ambitions within the Harkonnen dynasty, offering a deeper look at the forces that would ultimately challenge the universe. It matters as a key chapter in the expanded Dune mythos, bridging the gap between the original book and its richly detailed prequel lore.
