They say good fences make good neighbors. But unlike Robert Frost, the kaiju don't respect property lines. And like Pink Floyd, they're great at tearing down walls. So Humanity relies on brave and talented people to pilot the Jaegers that keep the monsters at bay. But are the giant mechas sufficient to meet every threat? And what else is happening in the continuing war between Humanity and the monsters that threaten us?

Pacific Rim: Final Breach Graphic Novel Trilogy

 

 

Legendary Comics Launches Kickstarter for  

Pacific Rim: Final Breach Graphic Novel Trilogy,

Officially Continuing the Pacific Rim Saga

 

Legendary Comics announced a 3-book graphic novel sequel to Pacific Rim and Pacific Rim Uprising that will pick up on the franchise storyline and take it in bold new directions. With a new cover featuring the likenesses of Charlie Hunnam (Raleigh), John Boyega (Jake Pentecost), and Charlie Day (Newt), Pacific Rim: Final Breach is written by Joshua Fialkov (Netflix’s live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender) with art by E.J. Su (Transformers). Partnering with Rocketship Entertainment, the book trilogy is being pre-sold on Kickstarter paired with exclusive merchandise available only through the campaign. The Kickstarter campaign for Pacific Rim: Final Breach launches on Wednesday, July 31. Click here for more details.

 

Humanity faces its ultimate threat as the Precursors unleash a new wave of devastating Kaiju assaults on Earth in Pacific Rim: Final Breach! After years of failed attempts to enter the Anteverse, the trans-dimensional realm from which all Kaiju emerge, Jake Pentecost and Hermann Gottlieb conceive a daring last-ditch plan whose success hinges on finding legendary Jaeger pilot Raleigh Becket—the only human being to ever survive behind enemy lines. Living in exile off the grid, Raleigh must choose assured annihilation or confront his past and team up with a new generation to pilot the brand-new Gipsy Destroyer, the last Jaeger standing. Tensions escalate and old wounds reopen as the PPDC finally crosses the breach to confront what lies on the other side… It’s time for humanity to meet its true enemy and cancel the apocalypse once and for all.

 

“When it was declared at the end of the last Pacific Rim movie that we were going to take the war to the invaders, that was a set-up we couldn’t resist bringing to the world of graphic novels. We are delighted to pick up on the canonical threads and tell a new exciting story for fans of the franchise in this 3-book series,” said Robert Napton, SVP, Comics & Publishing at Legendary Entertainment.
