Mini-Series Premiere. Thirty-five years before the events of Little Bird Volume 1: The Fight for Elder's Hope, disillusioned mod-tracker Max Weaver's routine hunt for a modified child takes a grisly and unexpected turn. Now, saddled with an unpredictable mod who may be the key to unlocking his missing memories, Max will soon find that he isn't the only one interested in the child's unique abilities-and if he wants to know more, it's going to cost him everything. Eisner Award-winning creative team Darcy Van Poelgeest and Ian Bertram reunite for their gripping return to the dystopian American Empire.

Insane art
were not worthy
Sci-fi fantasy with a strong dose of psychedelics. It's refreshing to get something so original and creative. These 56 pages deliver a storytelling experience you won't forget.
A mindblowing visual feast of a comic book!
I missed out on Little Bird, seeing the mention in this issue was the first I'd heard of it. I'll definitely be going back and looking for it now though. This style of art usually isn't my cup of tea but I couldn't tear my eyes away from most of the pages. Reminded me a little of Akira, tonally. Maybe just because of all the "wtf" imagery. Story seems interesting too, I dunno if I need to read Little Bird to better understand what's going on or just wait for following issues to clarify but I'm on board either way. This combines many of my favorite themes and genres. Can't wait to see where it goes from here.
Awesome debut. Need to go back and reread little bird, the world is crazy creepy/cool.
