BOOM! Studios have just announced details of THE LAST BOY, the latest fairytale adaptation from writer Dan Panosian, set for release in Spring 2025.

The new series, which features artwork from rising star Alessio Avallone (James Bond: 007, For King and Country), takes us into the future of Neverland as Peter and Wendy struggle to adjust to their new lives without one another.

Here’s the official synopsis:

Years after Peter Pan’s adventures with Wendy Darling, the boy who wouldn’t grow up is now the last one in Neverland still clinging to his adventurous youth. Meanwhile in London, Wendy also yearns for childhood and its freedom from responsibility as she rails against the transition to adulthood and her family’s expectations.

As their desires create a mirror of fantasy and reality, a disastrous encounter with the aging Captain Hook becomes the catalyst for Peter’s realization that Neverland is growing up without him.

But will the two of them find each other once again to carry on their age-old adventures…or is this truly the final threshold of their adolescence?

Speaking about the series, Panosian said “Having grown up fascinated with the Peter Pan films and books, I desperately wanted to tell a Peter Pan and Wendy story that takes place years after they encountered one another. I wondered what would happen if everyone around Peter grew up but he still hadn’t, even if his very life and those he loved depended on it!”

“I’ve loved Peter Pan’s story since childhood—maybe because, like all comic book artists, we’re eternal children? But as an adult artist, this project gave me a creative freedom I hadn’t felt in a while,” said series artist Alessio Avallone. “The real challenge was capturing the contrast between the foggy London and the dreamy Neverland. I hope readers enjoy it!”

THE LAST BOY # 1 will be available in comic shops March 19, 2025
