Over the past few months, Valiant has been teasing an all-new story of theirs would hit shelves in November 2016. Harbinger Renegade will mark the psionic team’s return to print, and it promises to bring with it a rather intimidating foe. The series, which is set to kick off on November 16, will follow Harbingers like Peter Stancheck and Faith Herbert as they fight to keep their comrades safe and enemies at bay. And, now, Valiant is celebrating their impending series with an animated trailer.

When Harbinger Renegade launches tomorrow, the series will debut with a 40-page issue penned by Rafer Roberts. Artists Darick Roberston, Raul Allen, and Juan Jose Ryp provided art for the explosive issue, and Valiant fans are rearing to get their hands on the much-hyped issue. Harbinger Renegade has already sold out its print run at a distributor level, so comic book readers best get to their local shop early to ensure they snag a copy.

If you want to check out the issue’s synopsis, then you can read it below:

“Anyone you know could become a psionically powered ‘harbinger’ with the potential to reshape the course of human history. Your neighbor. Your boss. Your best friend. Your kids.

Six months ago, a secret team of renegade whistleblowers leaked the existence of these extraordinarily dangerous individuals to a stunned world. Today, all across the country, crude, DIY psiot activation attempts have left hundreds brain damagedโ€ฆor worse. The emergence of a new psiot in a community often leads to riots and mass violence. Gun sales are through the roof.

America is terrified of what could happen next.

With this revolutionary upheaval now in motion, Kris Hathaway, John “Torque” Torkelson, Faith “Zephyr” Herbert, and Peter Stanchek are about to discover their calling. Together, the Harbinger Renegades are moving from town to town, building their ranks, and subverting authority one mind at a timeโ€ฆand setting out to prove once and for all that behind their power, there has always been a purpose.”

Of course, many fans know that Harbinger Renegade is slated to usher in one of Valiant’s most ambitious projects to date: Harbinger Wars 2. Readers will be able to score an exclusive look at the upcoming story through Harbinger Renegade as issues #1-4 will come with mail-away coupons. Fans who collect the four tickets can then redeem them for Harbinger Wars 2 #0 before the full series launches in 2018.
