Full Description
The most ambitious comics event of 2016 brings war to the 41st century -
with Rai leading the charge!
One hundred years from today, Father - the
benevolent artificial intelligence that governs the island nation of Japan -
will gain sentience. To defend its borders, Father will take drastic action by
launching Japan into space...where its people will thrive in isolation, away
from the overpopulated and resource-deprived planet below. Over the centuries,
as New Japan orbits our increasingly unstable world, it will become a model
society - one built on peace, prosperity... and Father's control.
A
thousand years from today, Father will create the first Rai, founding a lineage
of technologically enhanced heroes engineered to defend New Japan and sworn to
protect it from all enemies. For hundreds of years into the future, the Rai will
single-handedly enforce New Japan's justice well...and serve Father without
question.
Now, at the dawn of 4001 A.D., the latest Rai is about to
inherit the dark truth behind the origin of his kind...and discover the sinister
secret at the heart of Father's existence. For New Japan to live, Earth must
die...and as Rai challenges his former master for the first time in more than a
millennium, the lone guardian of New Japan will be cast out of his own Father's
kingdom...
Exiled from the only realm he's ever known, Rai now walks the
ravaged world of 4001 A.D. in search of forgotten heroes like himself... on a
mission to collect the last surviving legends of a broken planet...and to forge
a rebellion with the power to bring the most advanced civilization in history
crashing back down to Earth.
New York Times best-selling writer Matt
Kindt (DIVINITY II) and superstar artist Clayton Crain (X-Force) bring their
startling vision of the year 4001 A.D. to new heights...with the fate of New
Japan floating in the balance!
