REVEL GUTS’ QUEER FANTASY SAGA CONTINUES IN “SPARKS VOLUME 2: ROYALTY”

Part two of popular webcomic 'Sparks' coming soon from Dark Horse

Dark Horse Books and Revel Guts continue to bring the hit queer fantasy webcomic to print in Sparks Volume 2: Royalty. A new life begins for fate-entwined satyrs, Philo and Atlas, and along with it rises a string of new challenges and mysteries. Fans of series such as Naruto and Heartstopper will want to add this new fantasy series to their collection.

After a shocking graduation day full of surprises, Philo and Atlas arrive at the palace to begin their new lives. Philo is quickly taken under the wing of the Arch Mage's flirtatious younger brother, Pallas, and is shown the ropes of daily royal life. Meanwhile, Atlas begins his brutal apprenticeship and uncovers some unsettling truths about his future. All is not what it seems as shadowy figures continue to pull the strings behind the scenes.

Will Philo and Atlas be able to navigate this twisted web and find their way back to one another? And just why is the Arch Mage so interested in Philo...?
