Zenescope Entertainment Uniting All-Stars in Realm Knights

Every publisher loves a good crossover. Crossovers lead to team-ups, bringing together a slew of familiar characters to fight on one super-team against a common enemy. Zenescope wants to create their own super-team, bringing together some of its most popular Grimm Universe characters for Realm Knights, written by Patrick Shand.

“It's a great mix of fantasy, action, horror and humor.” says writer Patrick Shand. “It's a blast to take these characters out of their separate titles and allow them to come together against common threats while also trying to get along with one other. For Grimm Fairy Tales fans, the elements will be familiar but also feel fresh and different.”

The brand new four issue mini-series teams up characters such as Robyn Hood, Van Helsing, Red Riding Hood and Sela Mathers. Together the group forms the Realm Knights, a powerful modern day team of heroes that is chosen to help eliminate daunting supernatural threats against our world. The first issue of Realm Knights is available now for pre-order in Diamond's June 2013 edition of PREVIEWS and will be released both in print and digitally in August. The #1 issue will feature covers by Anthony Spay, Marat Mychaels, Alfredo Reyes and will also include a unique “suiting up” connecting cover by Spay that will spread across all four issues.
