The Press Release:
2024 was the year of Bruce Dickinson, as he rocked the world with the release of his seventh solo album, ‘THE MANDRAKE PROJECT,’ and an accompanying tour across Europe and South America. Never content to simply do the expected, Dickinson also released a companion comic series by the same name as an integral part of The MANDRAKE PROJECT identity. The series, which had been brewing in Dickinson’s head for over a decade, was received to thunderous acclaim.

Now, Z2 is proud to announce the impending release of THE MANDRAKE PROJECT: YEAR ONE on August 5, 2025, which collects the first four issues in the series, along with the prologue (previously only available in the vinyl release of the single for “The Afterglow of Ragnarok”). Additionally, the oversized 12”x12”, 184-page volume Deluxe Editions include an extensive series of interviews and essays recounting the road Dickinson and the creative team took in bringing the album, tour, and comic series to life. With an introduction by Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter, the book is housed in an exquisite slipcase with a rotating embossed Mandrake dial and is bound with a sealing ribbon and gilt paper edging. The case also contains four exclusive foil collectors cards and the cast metal MANDRAKE PROJECT medallion seen in the comic and music videos. This book is the must have item for all lovers of Iron Maiden, Bruce Dickinson, and supernatural tales!

PiercingMetal Thoughts: Having pointed out that I don’t like to speak on teasers I remain with the same stance. However, I did try to determine which “Imperial” this might be meaning. Could it be “X-Men” themed with the Imperial Guard or dare I assume something in the “Star Wars” universe and The Empire. Who knows. Truth be told I haven’t seen any other leaks or assumptions at the time of this posting but I never mind sharing teases like this for content sake. With PiercingMetal’s Comic Book features steadily aiming on reaching 1000 posts in the coming months the more things like this the merrier. Okay I am out of here. Though its still the eve of Christmas Eve, I wish you and yours a very “Merry Christmas” if this is your holiday. See you next time.
