“In Starhenge, a future Merlin travels to 5th-century Britain to prevent monstrous time-traveling killer robots from robbing the universe of magic, and Amber Weaver’s lively present-day narrative reveals how she becomes drawn into a war across time.”

Sharp talked about the long road to getting to create a series with Image Comics, saying:

“I’ve wanted to do my own Image comic for 30 years. I’ve wanted to do a Merlin comic for even longer than that! This is a culmination of so many dreams and ambitions of mine finally being realized, and that makes it the most exciting and personal comic project I have ever done. I can’t wait to see it on the shelves!”
