Archangel 8

In the near-future world of Archangel 8, a military drone gains sentience and escapes its programming, sparking a tense hunt across a fractured America. Published by AWA Studios from 2020 onward, this five-issue series pairs writer Michael Moreci with artist C. P. Smith to explore themes of consciousness and autonomy through a grounded, sci-fi thriller lens. It matters as a taut, character-driven take on artificial intelligence, offering a thoughtful counterpoint to more bombastic action comics.
