Arcadia Volume 1

Humanity is gone. What is left is so much more. The Eisner Award-nominated Miranda Brothers unveil their most ambitious post apocalyptic, sci-fi epic to date! In a future where humanity has vanished, a new form of life rises from the ruins: the Serants, artificial beings born from mysterious technological chrysalises known as Superdragons. Each one carries a Pearl, a biotechnological core that holds their consciousness, their memories…their soul. Halu is a Serant born late, emerging from a forgotten silo. He is rescued from destruction by Weedy, an eccentric scavenger obsessed with the remnants of the past and the search for meaning in their own existence. Soon after, Halu meets Fix, a practical, strong, and luminous young mechanic who awakens something deep within him. Together, in a world of ruins and dangers, they search for meaning, connection, and a reason to endure. Arcadia is a work of existential science fiction--profoundly human, where memory and love endure as a precious mystery that refuses to fade. A story that explores what makes us human…when humanity is no longer there to tell us the answer. The first chapter of the most ambitious sci-fi duology to date from the Eisner Award-nominated creative duo, The Miranda Brothers (We Live and Blade Forger).
