Released 11/19/2025
Written and illustrated by Edwin Galmon, this debut issue brings Disney’s timeless classic to comics with a bold visual style and expanded emotional depth. Galmon retells the early journey of Simba, capturing his struggle to understand responsibility, legacy, and the looming threat of Scar, whose quiet manipulations begin to fracture the harmony of the Pride Lands. The adaptation enriches key moments from the film, offering new perspectives on Mufasa’s teachings, Simba’s innocence, and the political tension simmering beneath the savanna’s beauty.
Galmon’s artwork delivers sweeping landscapes, expressive character animation, and cinematic paneling that echo the grandeur of the original movie while giving it a fresh comic‑book identity. The result is a faithful yet revitalized retelling that honors one of Disney’s most beloved stories.
