Yucatan 1512

In Yucatan 1512 (2025–present, Dark Horse), the series drops readers into the collision of Maya civilization and Spanish conquest, anchored by the historical figure of Gonzalo Guerrero—a shipwrecked sailor who chose to assimilate into Maya culture. The single issue released so far sets a tense, historically grounded tone, exploring themes of identity and survival through Guerrero’s unique perspective. Associated with writer/artist Tyler Chin-Tanner, this series matters for its fresh, nuanced take on a lesser-known chapter of early colonial history, offering a narrative that resists easy heroism or villainy.
