Asphodel #1 Newborn

Asphodel is the breakout Kickstarter success from writer/creator Alex Kane and artist Gale Galligan. A mythic space opera illustrated in lush, gorgeous watercolors and hand lettering, the first creator-owned comic series from Nekyia Studios has been featured in such places as The A.V. Club, Bleeding Cool, GeekMom, and Panels.The year is 4419. Vic Delany is a two-thousand-year-old veteran of interstellar war returning home after a lifetime of battle in the wilds of space, a battered brainship scarred by the atrocities he's witnessed out among the UNEN colony worlds. Sedna, a cyborg demigoddess and sole administrator of a space habitat orbiting Pluto, is charged with escorting inbound starships back to the Sol system. She also safeguards the gateway to the digital Otherworld: an ancient simulacrum powered by the light of dead and dying suns all across the galaxy, where most of humanity has taken refuge to escape the ravages of war-and achieve immortality.
