Image Comics is pleased to reveal a sneak peek at October’s Nullhunter #1 by Eisner Award-winning creator Michael Walsh (The Silver Coin, Universal Monsters: Frankenstein) and rising star artist Gustaffo Vargas (Peruvian Cyberpunk, Marvel’s Voices X-Men). This inside look at Nullhunter #1 shows war hero Clay’s bloody battle against a cyberpunk Nemean lion in his first Herculean labor, leaving readers wondering who will win this vicious fight. Issue #1 kicks off a brand-new sci-fi epic that not only reimagines classic Greek mythology, but also dives into a dark cyberpunk world in the same vein as fan-favorites like Frank Miller’s Ronin and Blade Runner.
In Nullhunter, war hero Clay faces unspeakable tragedy after returning home from battle. While seeking justice, he’s forced into service for his estranged father’s powerful company, OLYMP0S. His first mission takes him to faraway N3M-3A on the trail of a hijacked shipment of war lions. In seeking exoneration, this quest of twelve near-impossible labors will lead Clay to the very edges of space as he discovers the true source of evil in the cosmos.
“Clay’s fight with Lion of N3M-3A is an absolutely brutal clash of blood and chrome,” said Walsh. “Gustaffo Vargas showcases why he’s the perfect artist for this book. He draws action like no one else, and I think this snippet of what he can do should get people excited about the big things to come.”
