For nearly forty years, the ThunderCats franchise has been home to some of the most iconic characters in all of pop culture. Across the series’ numerous iterations, the eponymous heroes have taken on some wildly different forms. Now, Dynamite Comics has given the ThunderCats the kind of return to form that longtime fans have been looking forward to for years, even if doing so means rewriting their story in ways that shake the series to its very core.ThunderCats #1 (by Declan Shalvey, Drew Moss, Chiara Di Francia, Martina Pignedoli, and Jeff Eckleberry) kicks things off explosively in familiar fashion, as the planet of Thundera, the homeworld of the ThunderCats, is violently destroyed. In a desperate bid to escape, the ThunderCats left Thundera behind for Third Earth, a lush landscape replete with new opportunities. At least, that was the case until the ThunderCats were followed by the same Mu’Tants who had destroyed Thundera in the first place. Worse still, the ThunderCats’ sage leader Jaga passed away on the journey, leaving the task of ushering in a new age in the hands of Lion-O. While fans might not find anything about this setup all that dissimilar from what they are used to, the fact that this Lion-O’s Sword of Omens is shattered in his first fight on Third Earth is just the first sign that things are far more different than they appear on the surface.Alongside Panthro, Cheetara, Tygra, the young WilyKit and WilyKat, and later additions to the team such as Pumyra and Bengali, Lion-O fought valiantly against the forces of the ancient, evil Mumm-Ra. Wielding the Sword of Omens and the fabled Eye of Thundera, an ancient gem that is the source of the ThunderCats’ power, Lion-O triumphed over all manner of trials and tribulations. Likewise, his fellow ThunderCats consistently proved themselves to be every bit the heroes that Lion-O inspired them to be, even in the team’s darkest moments.
