SET AFTER THE EVENTS OF THE BLADE RUNNER: BLACK LOTUS ANIME SERIES!
ELLE, AKA BLACK LOTUS, HOPED SHE COULD LEAVE BEHIND HER VIOLENT PAST AND FIND A NEW LIFE. BUT IS THAT POSSIBLE IN A WORLD WHERE REPLICANTS ARE STILL HUNTED AND FEARED.
EXPANDING THE WORLD OF BLADE RUNNER WITH A NEW TYPE OF REPLICANT!
Blade Runner: Black Lotus' first issue lays excellent foundations for the miniseries ahead. It's a post apocalyptic thriller at its finest, I look forward to seeing how it evolves. Read Full Review
BLADE RUNNER: BLACK LOTUS #1 is a better-than-average start for a new Blade Runner adventure. The setup and character introductions are rock solid, as is the art. That said, the desert town setting and absence of detective noir mood make this story feel like a Cowboy Western rather than a Blade Runner series. Read Full Review
Doesn't feel like Blade Runner to me, feels like some generic dystopian future. It also assumes I have watched the anime and thus doesn't need to spend time developing the character.
This is nothing like the other Blade Runner series. It's set in the desert in an almost apocalyptic environment. And the artwork is atrocious. It looks completely amateur or at least over-stylized. If Elle is a replicant, when did they start making children replicants and why? The whole thing is just weird. I like the idea of a samurai replicant, but this is just disappointing. I'll give it one more issue.
