Deftly combining the master worldbuilding of both Ridley Scott's BLADE RUNNER and the Wachowski's THE MATRIX with the intricate storytelling of Roman Polanski's CHINATOWN, and the groundbreaking visuals of Jack Kirby's FOURTH WORLD, the Laphams deliver a seminal neo-noir sci-fi epic. It's a cold morning in The City when Valencia Vallez wakes up in an unfamiliar bed with a revolver in her hand and a dead body at her side. She doesn't remember how she got there. She doesn't remember much of anything. Just the long list of names buzzing around her head--suspects in the brutal gangland execution of her husband. Lucky for her, Val's a homicide detective. The only trouble? In the City, so is everyone else. Val's hunt for answers has painted a target on her back. Caught between the crooked cops hot on her tail and the towering mechanical Judges looming over the City's rain-soaked streets, every lead Val runs down only raises more questions. What secrets lie hidden in Val's missing memories? Who is the Mastermind? In The City, the truth doesn't come easy. And when it does, you’ll wish it hadn't.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder by 09\/20\/2026 for Pre-order Guarantee \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAll comics are bagged and boarded\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you order comics with different release dates, and you choose shipping, all items will ship when the last of your items is released.
