Following the best-selling graphic novel Tales From Year Zero, Legendary returns to Guillermo del Toro’s kaiju-filled world with Pacific Rim: Tales From The Drift.

The series promises to introduce all-new Kaiju creatures in this thrilling continuation of the Pacific Rim universe.

With a sequel on the way (albeit delayed while del Toro works on other projects), the Pacific Rim brand remains one of Legendary’s biggest — both in terms of its fan following and its importance to the company, which doesn’t own a lot of original IP.

The series comes from writer Joshua Fialkov and features artwork by Marcos Marz.
