Rogue State TP Vol 1 Pre-order

“Depicts American Hellscape in Art.” (–Rolling Stone) “The concepts Matt is presenting here are so familiar they should be terrifying.” (–Chuck D, Public Enemy) “Ripped from tomorrow’s headlines… it’s a genre known as ‘speculative fiction.’ Except that it doesn’t seem as speculative anymore.” (-The San Francisco Chronicle) What if a contested Presidential election plunged America into turmoil? What if political violence consumed the streets? And what if a raging Supreme Court, in a strict interpretation of the 2nd Amendment, legitimized and deputized all militias, transforming the entire country into a paramilitary police state? This speculative-fiction comic book series tells the story of Vya Of Brightstars, a mysterious figure rising from the unrest, and Clara Cruz, a young professional who becomes activated in Vya’s movement when her fiancée is disappeared as militias take over their Mission District neighborhood. But are Vya and Clara freedom fighters or terrorists? “Revolutionary.” (-io9)
