Watch the Trailer for DC Ink's MERA: TIDEBREAKER

The first release from DC Ink will be released in about a month. It is Mera: Tidebreaker and it comes from writer Danielle Paige and artist Stephen Byrne. As you might’ve guessed, Tidebreaker will focus on Mera and show her grow as a character.

“Princess Mera is teenage royalty and heir to the throne of Xebel, a penal colony ruled by Atlantis. Her father and the entire kingdom are expecting her to marry and introduce a new king. But Mera is destined to wear a different crown.

When the Xebellian military plots to overthrow Atlantis and break free of its oppressive regime, Mera seizes the opportunity to take control of her own destiny by assassinating Arthur Curry—the long-lost prince and heir to the kingdom of Atlantis. But her mission gets sidetracked when Mera and Arthur unexpectedly fall in love. Will Arthur Curry be the king at Mera’s side, or will he die under her blade as she attempts to free her people from persecution? Mera is forced to choose between following her heart and her mission to kill.”

Mera: Tidebreaker will release on April 2 and I think these YA books will be a lot of fun. Check out the trailer below for a bit more information.

"It's just there's something about Arthur..." From New York Times bestselling author Danielle Paige and artist Stephen Byrne comes a remarkable new Young Adult graphic novel that reimagines the undersea world of Mera, as the fiery princess of Xebel undertakes a top secret mission for her kingdom and takes her first steps towards becoming a hero...or a villain.
