Welcome to the end of civilization-it's the perfect place to start a new beginning, no? All secrets will be revealed as origins and endings come full circle for the year's most acclaimed science-fiction nightmare, as told by visionary creators Christian Ward (Event Horizon: Dark Descent) and Sami Kivelä (Abbott)! To know the future, we must first understand the past-a place plagued by famine, ecological collapse, and mistrust as one family fights to survive in a world that would willfully strip them of their humanity. Witness now how the first Forever Home was conceived-a life raft for the exceptionally wealthy and a blocked exit for a pregnant mother and her unborn child, who might just be humankind's second chance. Christian Ward is a UK-based illustrator, comic artist, and writer. Some of his clients include Marvel Comics, DC Comics, Dark Horse Comics, EPIC Games, and the Guardian, among others. After 10 years of encouraging London teenagers to draw anything other than comics, Ward is now a multi-Eisner-winning comic book artist and writer. He is best known for his cosmic space operas ODY-C, cocreated with Matt Fraction, and the Eisner-winning Invisible Kingdom, cocreated with G Willow Wilson. He was also the artist on the acclaimed Marvel Comics series Black Bolt (with Saladin Ahmed), as well contributing to both Thor (with Jason Arron ) and Batman (with James Tynion). In 2019, he released his first book as a writer, Machine Gun Wizards, cocreated with Sami Kivelä, and Blood Stained Teeth, cocreated with Patric Reynolds. He was hailed by ComicsBeat as "one of the most exciting comic auteurs working in comics today."
