Description
"A long and bloody road trip, one well worth taking." -AIPT
Set in the same world as the films MOON and MUTE, Madi is a cerebral cyberpunk graphic novel about a team of veterans who have taken on corporate mercenary work to pay for the upkeep of technological enhancements that have turned them into human drones.
Madi Preston, a veteran of Britain's elite J-Squad, is burnt out and up to her eyeballs in bills for her cybernetics' upkeep. When she takes an off-the-books job that promises to eliminate her and her sister's debt, the corporate secret she's hired to steal is not at all what she expects... and she finds herself on the run from everyone she's ever known. In a globe-spanning adventure from Shanghai to Soho, Madi has to stay one step ahead of the giant corporations closing in on her from all sides.
Madi is the third story in director Duncan Jones' Mooniverse following the films Moon and Mute and features stunning art from a murderer's row of comic greats: Pia Guerra, Simon Bisley, Annie Wu, Glenn Fabry, James Stokoe, and more!
