Blade Runner Tokyo Nexus #4 Preview

COVER A: Jakub Rebelka


 

This has been a super-involving series. Like the movies, it's a deceptively slow-paced visual story that forces you to pay attention to everything that's going on. This final issue in the first story arc ties up some loose threads and sets up events for the next arc. Can Stix and Mead trust each other again? Will Rumiko kill the ex-Tyrell scientists working for Cheshire? Here's all the info:

FINAL ISSUE IN ARC ONE!

 

Tokyo 2015: Two Kalanthia survivors fight for their lives in a world where Blade Runners are the least of their problems

 

Following a failed mission Off-World, the only two survivors of a combat squad, ex-marine Mead and Replicant combat model Stix, have returned to Tokyo to search for the traitor who left them to die.

 

Now working as unlicensed detectives while hunting their betrayer, Stix and Mead find themselves in the middle of a deadly conflict between rival Yakuza clans, Tyrell Corp special operatives, and Cheshire, an enigmatic rival to Tyrell with its own version of Replicant technology.

 

Now, let's preview the art in Blade Runner Tokyo Nexus #4:

 


 


 




How about the reflection of Stix in that eye? Oh, and that's Rumiko, the Blade Runner who had partnered with Mead, bugging out when things get heavy on the final page. See what I mean about every panel speaking volumes?



Here's two more cover options:
