"I am so excited to be on board The Future Is ****** and work with Fred, Joe, and the REKCAH crew," exclaimed Latham. "It's been too long since I've been on a monthly book, and I love being able to contribute to building a mythology over the long term. TFI has the potential to be literally anything from one issue to the next—any genre, any look, any mood and tone. It's a challenge too good to pass up."

"I'm so thrilled and humbled to be joined by a GOAT writer/artist, David Lapham, as we move into the next 'season' of The Future Is ******," says series writer Fred Van Lente (Marvel Zombies, Action Philosophers). "Like everybody else in comics with a pulse, Stray Bullets completely captivated me when it first came out, and since TFI is at its heart a cyberpunk crime caper, this couldn't be a more perfect marriage of lead artist and story."

REKCAH COO Jason Blanchard added, "David Lapham's Stray Bullets is one of my all-time favourites, so having him join The Future Is ******* is a dream come true. I can't wait for everyone to see his work."

The Future Is ****** is a 60-issue cyberpunk comic that follows Black Mountain, a team of rogue hackers fighting in a world run by evil data rulers, for fans of Oceans Eleven and Mr. Robot. Each issue contains Capture The Flag (CTF) challenges that readers can complete to experience the story in an entirely new way and compete against one another, earning challenge points. The series is exclusively available to order from Lunar Distribution.
