Comics

Volume 1

Princess Arkayna Goodfey, thief Zarya Moonwolf, the kind dwarf Emerald Goldenbraid, and the immortal energetic elf Piper Willowbrook, are four girls who have been chosen to become the second generation of legendary Mysticons as well as the closest of friends--are drawn together by a prophecy to battle the forces of pure evil and protect the mystical and magical realm of Gemina at all costs.

Volume 2

In an effort to convince Emerald "Em" to have some fun and leave the Stronghold for once, the Mysticons head to Magi Mall. The second Mysticon Knight is hesitant at first, but although her spirits are lifted when she runs into an elf boy named Felix Castle, the star of a high-stakes robotics competition called "Machinations" for a hit reality show. Without missing a beat- and without a plan or even a robot- Emerald agrees to try out at the show's next open audition. When she and Piper enter the competition, they not only find themselves battling with robots but against new friends with scorned feelings.

Trivia

• The graphic drawings seem to depict the girls' in their early twenties, even though there appears to be no time-gap in most of the comic books. The comic books set after the series finale have yet to be revealed.
• Unlike other popular Dark Horse comic book series/graphic novels (ongoing Avatar: the Airbender and Avatar: The Legend of Korra), these volumes do not have a title on the cover of every one (such as the comics of magical girl comics of Winx Club and complete comic series of W.I.T.C.H.) nor are they split into trilogies.

• Kymraw is the very first villain from the show to appear.
• Several more places make their appearances that were not seen throughout the series; the first being the hidden Undercity hangout Amaranth.
• Other techno-magic vehicles are seen; such as "Hover bikes."

Not in the Animated Show

• Many more appearances of King Darius and Queen Goodfey, who barely had any speaking roles, as recurring characters. Queen Goodfey's relationship with her younger twin daughter Zarya Moonwolf, as well as their relationship with King Darius are to be expressed more.
• Proxima Starfall changes the Astromancers Academy for the better, and eventual meeting with Queen Goodfey, the woman who was believed to be her birth mother.
• Information on Piper's long-lost elven family is said to revealed, as of what became of Tazma and Malvaron's parents, and more info on the obscurely mysterious background of the lonely and friendless orphan, Proxima.
• Different, more exotic places and hidden secrets of Gemina are seen as there were not enough episodes to fully show and explain them in the animated series.
