Apparently the dark dystopian vision of a feudal future depicted by Greg Rucka and Michael Lark is not scaring off readers as the second issue of Lazarus sold out the same week as its release.
Forever Carlyle, the powerful Carlyle Family’s “Lazarus,” is a genetically-enhanced young woman who cannot be killed who protects the Family’s interests and resources. Raised to believe she is a loved member of the Family, Forever’s world begins to fall apart as she questions the brutal acts she has been raised to believe are normal.
The second printing of Lazarus #2 is currently available for pre-ordered now and will be simultaneously released with Lazarus #3 on August 28, 2013.
