This book is beautiful. The collection has as much shelf appeal as the individual issues’ covers — I just love the sense of space the illustrations have. If they look as good to you as they do to me, find a copy of this graphic novel. You don’t need to read more.
But, in brief: The story starts in 4040, when Adley’s parents are taken captive while exploring multidimensional space. Adley has visions of them, so the plan is to link her to a new, fully conscious AI in a humanoid body, Staden, so that she can help guide him to her parents through the multidimensional maze that is the Bridge. This linking takes a while.
Twelve years later, Staden sets off on his rescue mission.
