About the series
A single-issue sampler from Image Comics, Image Firsts: Descender offers a perfect entry point into Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen's acclaimed sci-fi series. This 2015 reprint presents the first chapter of a story about a young robot boy named Tim-21, adrift in a universe where synthetic life has been outlawed after a catastrophic event. With Nguyen's luminous, watercolor-style art, it's a beautifully crafted introduction to a deeply human tale told through the eyes of a machine.
