Blade Runner 2029 1-3 Boxed Set cover

The Blade Runner 2029 1-3 Boxed Set collects three volumes that explore Ash's battle against renegade Replicants in a dystopian Los Angeles.

Return to the iconic universe of Blade Runner 2029 1-3 Boxed Set, where the narrative dives deeper into a dystopian Los Angeles, ten years after the events of the first series. This officially sanctioned collection brings together all three volumes of the gripping comic book series that continues the Blade Runner saga. Readers will follow Blade Runner Aahna 'Ash' Ashina as she navigates the complex and dangerous streets, hunting down renegade Replicants while grappling with her own moral dilemmas. The set includes beautifully illustrated art cards that enhance the immersive experience of this richly crafted world.

In this collection, Ash is not just a hunter but also a protector of Replicants, determined to save them from the fate that awaits them in a society that views them as mere machines. In Blade Runner 2029, the stakes are higher than ever as Ash faces an old adversary and is drawn into a deadly game that tests her resolve and challenges her beliefs. Each volume unfolds a new layer of intrigue, with Ash fighting against time and powerful enemies who threaten both her life and the lives of those she seeks to protect.

As the series progresses through its three volumes, the tension escalates. From the initial confrontations in Reunion to the harrowing captivity in Echoes, and culminating in the desperate race for survival in Redemption, the narrative explores themes of identity, loyalty, and the essence of humanity. The Blade Runner 2029 1-3 Boxed Set is not just a collection; it is a profound exploration of what it means to be alive in a world where the lines between human and Replicant blur.

The mythology-expanding story is backed by artist Guinaldo's evocative depiction of the rain-sodden eco-catastrphine that is 2029 LA. Violent (including an eye-gouging) but supremely stylish - Total Film "Johnson and Guinaldo have managed to hit that nostalgic sweet spot of familiarity and extension with a strong third act helping to elevate the story enough to warrant further exploration" - SciFi Now "The artwork is fantastic. There's a dark gritty feel to it that also feels just as faithful to the films . . . You can practically hear the soundtrack of the original 1982 film playing in the background - The Hashtag Show
