Disney’s iconic 1994 film The Lion King returns to a new comic series published by Dynamite Comics from author/artist Edwingalmon, which will be released on November 12th, 2025.
The Lion King marks Garmon’s writing debut, having previously performed artwork and covers for multiple dynamite titles such as Lilo & Stitch, Stitch, Giantsize Wacky Races, The Terminator, and Thundercats: Cheetara.
“It’s a humble experience to have the honor and opportunity to work together proudly in the Lion King franchise. This is where my childhood imagination meets my adult craftsmanship and I hope people are really enjoying the stories we cooked!” Garmont said. “As a child, my favorite part of the Lion King film was all the scenes featuring Mufasa and Simba, as it relates to how much I love and respect my father. With that in mind, I wanted father bonds, loving guidance, stupid playtime, and mentorship themes for Simba to have fun with his father.”
