In 2020, New York Times Best-Selling author V. E. Schwab topped the charts with The Invisible Life of Addie Larue. Now comes Schwab’s next smash hit… ExtraOrdinary – a brand-new comic series set in the world of Schwab’s best-selling Villains novels launching May 5, 2021 with a special $1 Issue #0 which leads into a four-part series!
This new story is set in the years between the Vicious (2013) and Vengeful (2018) novels and will feature Eli Ever, the villain/antagonist of the original story. A whole host of new comic characters will also be introduced into this epic series.
ExtraOrdinary introduces Charlotte Tills, a headstrong teenager who survives a bus crash and becomes EO–ExtraOrdinary, gaining the ability to see people’s deaths before they occur. But when she looks into her own future and witnesses a murder by notorious EO-killer Eli Ever, Charlotte works to piece together the mystery of her visions and sets off to find – and change – her future – before it comes for her.
…the books grew out of the idea that if you took a real person – with all their shortcomings, and self-interests – and gave them superpowers, they would not suddenly become heroes. If anything, they’d probably become villains. – Schwab
Working alongside Schwab in bringing this new comic series to life will be artist Enid Balám (OMNI, Someday Comes Paradise).
