About the series
A high-concept conspiracy thriller from Image Comics, Throwaways (2016–2018) follows a group of young people who have been secretly trained as government assassins, their abilities honed through a mysterious program. When the program is shut down, the "throwaways" are marked for termination, forcing them to go on the run and unravel the truth behind their creation. Written by Caitlin Kittredge and illustrated by Steven Sanders, the series deftly mixes espionage, body horror, and found-family dynamics across its 14-issue run. It stands out for its gritty, paranoid atmosphere and its exploration of identity and agency within a shadowy state apparatus.
