Brzrkr: Light Draws Breath #1 by China Miéville, Season Butler and Alessio Avallone

"The immortal warrior B. is dead. Again. Not for long, of course. But, in the Bronze Age, two rogue scientists have siphoned off a tiny portion of his protoplasm before he can fully reconfigure, and something else has been born anew… Something that must learn what it is, what its powers are, how to be in the world…and how to fight those who would try to control it. Drawing on real historical figures and events, and secret histories of alchemy, award-winning writer Season Butler, along with NYT-bestselling author China Miéville, and powerhouse artist Alessio Avalone craft a story that's at once grim and funny, poignant and touching, about what it is to be "human" in the brand-new one-shot BRZRKR: LIGHT DRAWS BREATH #1. BRZRKR: LIGHT DRAWS BREATH #1 features a main cover by Esad Ribic, with variants by Ronald Wimberly, David Lafuente, Dillon Snook, Sweeny Boo, and more! BRZRKR: LIGHT DRAWS BREATH #1 will be available in comic shops on May 20, 2026."
