The ‘Dune Messiah’ Graphic Novel Wastes No Time Answering What Happens to Muad’Dib Detractors [Exclusive]

Barbenheimer may be a relic of the recent past, but its spirit will live on when Avengers: Doomsday and Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Three go head-to-head in theaters on December 13—otherwise known as Dunesday. While the former currently has the leg up on the latter with an array of comics folks can comb over before deciding which film to potentially double-feature first, the latter will soon have a new entry in the space to level the playing field via a graphic novel of Frank Herbert’s epic sci-fi novel, Dune Messiah.

Dune Messiah: Book 1 enlists the team behind the prequel series, Dune: House of Harkonnen, to bring Frank Herbert’s sequel into the realm of graphic novels. That team is composed of the writing duo of Herbert’s son, Brian Herbert, and Kevin J. Anderson (Doctor Strange: Endless Nightmare), with art by Michael Shelfer and painted cover art by Bill Sienkiewicz. Dune Messiah: Book 1 is the first part of a two-book graphic novel adaptation. Here’s its official plot synopsis:

In Dune Messiah: Book 1 , Paul Atreides is now Emperor of the known universe, but absolute power has made him both a ruler and a target. Revered as a messianic figure by the Fremen and feared by rival houses, Paul must confront a growing conspiracy that threatens to unravel his reign. As political enemies close in and his prophetic visions begin to shift, the future of his empire—and the people he loves—hangs in the balance.
