Following the success of StarCraft: Scavengers, Dark Horse Comics will team up with Blizzard Entertainment once again to further explore the StarCraft universe. A new series, titled StarCraft: Soldiers, is set to launch in January 2019, with a trade paperback edition of StarCraft: Scavengers going on sale one month later.
StarCraft: Soldiers will follow Shivani Singh, a recently-graduated lieutenant who is “eager to defend the Dominion on the front lines. But after she’s posted on the faraway planet of Cavir, she realizes that it will take more than good grades and confidence to survive on the edge of zerg space.”
