Description
Summary:In this boundary-breaking new graphic novel, a once-thriving world, buried in the ashes of a nuclear holocaust and ruined by generations of planetary wars, now lies in perpetual waste. To save humanity from itself, the remaining AI-bred and cloned elite humans are trained to become workers, soldiers, and enforcer -- armored warriors known as Ronin -- to help keep order and give humanity a purpose in this brave new world. After a certain age, the clones start to think for themselves and are sent on increasingly dangerous missions until they are killed or "retired," replaced by younger and more compliant clones, until the cycle repeats itself.
