Preview Descender #1 By Jeff Lemire And Dustin Nguyen
From creators who collectively brought you Trillium, Sweet Tooth, and Little Gotham, comes a grand space opera entitled, Descender. This March, Image Comics will release the new book written by Jeff Lemire, with art by Dustin Nguyen. The story follows one young robot's struggle to stay alive in a universe where all androids have been outlawed and bounty hunters lurk on every planet. Descender is a heart-felt cosmic odyssey that pits humanity against machine.
Jeff Lemire spoke about his story, saying:
It's a sprawling space epic, and the biggest story I've ever tackled. But at its heart, Descender is also a small story. The story of TIM-21, a young robot torn from his home and adrift in a galaxy that hates and fears him. It's this dynamic between the epic and the intimate that I think will make readers fall for Descender.
It's safe to say that this series will be likely be a success among fans. With such a talented duo working on it, how could it not be? I think the plot sounds appealing, and sophisticated. Looking over the preview images, I already feel like it will be easy to connect to this character. He seems innocent and vulnerable, which will probably tug at all of our heart-strings.
