About The Book

The first year of LEGENDARY COMICS YA is here in an all-new collectors box set!

The perfect jumping-on point for any YA fan. This deluxe box set includes the first three titles from Legendary Comics YA graphic novel line along with exclusive stickers!

- CHAMPIONESS: Based on the true story of Elizabeth Wilkinson, the famous 18th century female bare-knuckle boxer. Get your ring-side seat to the fiercest lady in London as she fights her way to the top to become the CHAMPIONESS!

- THE HEART HUNTER: On the island of Envecor, everyone is cursed to wear their heart outside their bodies, unable to die, change or grow, until they find their soul mate. Psyche is a Heart Hunter - trained to kill a person’s soul mate and ensure immortality for the other. As she hunts for her next target, will she instead find the cure for her own broken heart and perhaps lift the curse that hangs over everyone?

- LUPINA BOOK ONE: WAX: When tragedy strikes the coastal town of Kote, four-year-old Lupa finds herself alone in a new and unfamiliar world. Found by the she-wolf Coras, Lupa sets off on a journey of discovery... and revenge.

About The Authors

Tarun Shanker is a mild-mannered assistant by day and a milder-mannered writer by night, currently living in Boston. His idea of paradise is a place where kung-fu movies are projected on clouds, soul music fills the air and chai flows freely from the fountains. He is the co-author of the These Vicious Masks trilogy with Kelly Zekas.

James F. Wright is a Los Angeles-based writer, reader, and ramen eater. He's been writing comics for a while now, and been reading them for as long as he can remember. James is the co-creator, with Li Buszka, of Legendary Comics' girl-raised-by-a-wolf fable, Lupina. In 2018 he and artist Josh Eckert were nominated for an Eisner and PRISM Award for their self-published one-shot queer, sci-fi romance short, Contact High. That same year, he and artist Rashad Doucet contributed the sci-fi short, "Thrustfall," to Ascend Press's Eisner and Ignatz Award-winning anthology, Elements: Fire, edited by Taneka Stotts and Shing-Yin Khor. In 2020, James and Jackie Crofts completed their five-volume culinary coming-of-age crime saga, Nutmeg. His work has also appeared in the Iron Circus Comix anthologies FTL, Y'all (with Teo DuVall), and You Died (with Jackie Crofts). When he's not writing comics, he enjoys cooking, baking, and going to the movies (when it's safe to do so)
