FROM THE SOLICIT:
Val turns the tables and hits the road with Jono in tow... as her hostage. A trip through a reality-altering roadside attraction causes them both to lay their cards on the table and Jono reveals the history of the organization that’s after her, but is he telling the truth? And is he really Val’s hostage, or is this part of a larger plan? A violent confrontation pushes Val to her limits!
PRIMA APPARATA #1
IGNITION PRESS $4.99
(W) Olivia Dufault (A)Rebecca Isaacs (C) Marissa Louise (L) Becca Carey
From the Solicits:
Welcome to the Conservatory.
After Earth was shattered into surviving pockets across the galaxy, humanity’s most talented young women train at this prestigious celestial boarding school to become the next generation of mech pilots.
But these students aren’t soldiers, they’re ballerinas; and the mechs aren’t built for battle, but performance. All engineered in body and mind to entertain a ruling class of cosmic patrons in an annual life-or-death recital of mankind’s only unifying story: the saga of Appolyta the Huntress, a goddess whose pursuit of one last elusive prey ends in heartbreak.
This year’s top recruits, the quietly ambitious Mar and rebellious Rhea, endure a cutthroat curriculum to compete for the crowning title of Prima Apparata. As their bond deepens and Mar’s obsessive quest puts her under the wing of Appolyta herself, the line between art and indoctrination blurs—and the great personal cost of perfection will transform their lives.
Black Swan and Never Let Me Go meet Pacific Rim in this groundbreaking space opera from rising debut writer Olivia Dufault (Love Ignited, FX’s Legion) and fan-favorite veteran illustrator Rebekah Isaacs (BRZRKR: Fallen Empire, Money Shot)!

Felipe is still getting accustomed to life in New York City, and when a kaiju ravages Manhattan, he’ll need the help of two of his classmates to rescue his mom from a wrecked subway station.
From the Eisner-nominated team behind Frontera and This Land Is Our Land: A Blue Beetle Story comes a new adventure that, amid the blockbuster destruction of a kaiju rampage, focuses on the people and communities most impacted.
