About Creature Chronicles
Creature Chronicles follows an advanced race of humanoid dragons known as the Atriviane who have ruled over an interdimensional nexus of space and time. For almost as long, a barbaric race of humanoid aquatics known as the Ostrogs have sought to remove them from power. About a decade ago, the Ostrogs launched a siege that nearly wiped out their ancient enemy and drove the last of the Atriviane from their home. On Earth in the not-so-distant future, a 25-year-old Zarah has returned home after the death of her father to help her brothers run the family tourism business. After a black hole transports their shuttle to another dimension, Zarah is separated from her brothers before they are rescued by Atriviane. Zarah will find herself at the center of an intergalactic space war and realize that her presence there is anything but accidental.
Creature Chronicles is from the mind of Marvel Studios’ visionary Anthony Francisco. He served for nine years as a Senior Visual Development Artist at Marvel Studios, where he designed some of the world’s most beloved characters and elements for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, from Baby Groot to Loki to the Dora Milaje (female warriors of Black panther). His work has been featured in Guardians of the Galaxy Volumes 1, 2 and 3, Captain Marvel, Avengers: Infinity War, Avengers: Endgame, Antman, Antman and the Wasp, Black Panther and Doctor Strange.
