Join Chip Zdarsky, David Brothers, and Marcus To for a sci-fi adventure that defies expectation and time itself! Meet Blue, a man trapped in the past, which is our present. Sent back in time for a mission he could not bring himself to complete, the former soldier Blue builds a life with Grace, the Sheriff of a small rural town. The pair build a foundation of happiness on a history of bloodshed, as far away from the trigger-happy corporate overlords that used Blue as a human gun.After ten years together, Blue and Grace are on the cusp of taking the next step in their relationship: adoption. Before Grace can fully convince Blue to expand their family, the future comes calling. The overlords want their first deserter and to complete the mission Blue could not. They have one simple rule: kill anyone who stands in their way.

"This cleverly plotted sci-fi adventure from Zdarsky (the Daredevil series), cowritten by David Brothers (Good Devils) and with art by Marcus To and Marvin Sianipa, follows the exploits of Blue Hardy, a stranded commando from the future. In the present day, Blue’s striving to make a good, simple life for himself—he’s married to town sheriff Grace, he’s about to adopt foster kid Duke Rowland, and he literally tends to his own garden. Then violent comrades from the future return, in search of mysterious botanical seeds that could save their world. While Blue’s wracked with “time sickness,” which plays havoc with his memories, Grace, Duke, and his gregarious friend Baker (“I’m trustworthy as hell, Sheriff”) rally to protect him. The narrative builds to an energetic climax set in the dystopian future, where aged versions of Blue’s allies save him from execution and undertake an 11th-hour quest to get him back home in the last remaining time machine. The suspense is balanced with naturalistic dialogue and humor, while the artwork swaps visual styles effectively. Zdarsky’s fans will relish this optimistic tale, in which keeping up with the complex time-travel antics pays off. (Apr.)" - Publishers Weekly
