Preview: 'Labyrinth: Coronation' #1

As we first reported back in November, Archaia is set to release an ongoing series that traces the origins of Jareth, Labyrinth's Goblin King. 

Labyrinth: Coronation will take place in 18th century Venice Italy long before Sarah and Toby were even born

Writers Simon Spurrier and artist Daniel Bayliss aim to take fans back the hidden history of the Labyrinth and explain what happens when there isn't someone like Sarah to save you.

Throughout the series, a young woman will try to save a young boy named Jareth from the clutches of the Goblins and we'll find what happens to the little boys who don’t get rescued. 

In the world of Labyrinth, there isn't always a happy ending, and fans will see the ripple effects. This is the untold history of the Goblin King.

Jim Henson's Labyrinth: Coronation #1 is set to hit comic shops February 28 and be reordered now through Amazon.
