Marvel have some original graphic novels coming out this year, and one of these is the first official tie in to the TV series Once Upon A Time. Marvel has released the first few of Mike Del Mundo’s pages to Once Upon a Time: Shadow of the Queen!

Plotted by series writer and producer Daniel T. Thomsen, co-written by Corinna Bechko (Planet of The Apes), this landmark release fits into the official continuity of Once Upon a Time. If you think the licence tie-in will mean a rush job, but it will feature the great art of Nimit Malavia, Vasilis Lolos, Mike Del Mundo, Mike Henderson and Michael Kaluta.

The Evil Queen has, quite literally, captured the Huntsman’s heart — and now he’s her slave.  This is the never-before-told tale behind their twisted relationship — and what happens when a good man is forced to do bad.

When Regina cooks up yet another devious plan to capture Snow White — this time by allying with a pack of power-hungry werewolves — the Huntsman comes face-to-face with his past — and an independent spirit in Red Riding Hood that just may match his own.  Can these two break free of the forces that bind them and save Snow White?  When put to the test, where will the Huntsman’s loyalties lie?  Has the Evil Queen stolen his heart in more ways than one? 

Once Upon a Time: Shadow of the Queen is released on 4 September 2013 in book stores, comic shops, the Marvel Comics app and online in the Marvel Digital Comics Shop.
