Lost Fantasy reunites Pires with Money artist Luca Casalanguida. The first issue boasts cover art by Casalanguida, Alex Diotto, Darick Robertson, and Jae Lee. The series will also include a serialized backup story, Indigo Children: Exodus, a continuation of Pires' sci-fi series.

Image Comics provides the following synopsis:

In Lost Fantasy, a hidden magical world exists beneath our own. First contact occurred over a century ago, following a natural disaster that created a rift, allowing monsters to breach the barrier. Since then, elite monster hunters, known as The Great Hunters, have collaborated with global leaders to safeguard our world. But a recent catastrophic event in Montana has shattered the fragile peace, threatening both worlds. Rookie monster hunter Henry Blackheart must confront this new threat.

"I'm thrilled to be back at Image Comics with Lost Fantasy—a series blending my love of Western comics like East of West and Something Is Killing the Children with the immersive world-building and action of the JRPGs I grew up with," Pires shared with IGN. "Games like the Final Fantasy series—our lead character's spiky hair and giant sword are a direct nod to Tetsuya Nomura's iconic design for Cloud."

Pires adds, "The 'Lost' in the title is a subtle homage to Hironobu Sakaguchi's Lost Odyssey, a criminally underrated masterpiece from Mistwalker."
