Faceless and the Family Vol. 2: Maze of the Mechanical Aliens

From Eisner Award–winning cartoonist and visionary storyteller Matt Lesniewski (Crimson Flower, The Freak), the space-faring rogue known as Faceless and his found family of adventurers are about to encounter a new challenge—stronger, stranger, and more perplexing than any they've faced before—in an artistically ambitious and visually spectacular sci-fi fantasy odyssey unlike anything else in this universe . . . or the next!

Roving the backwaters of the class-segregated alien world called the Hand Planet, Faceless is plunged into his most harrowing ordeal yet–bonded to a living suit of extraterrestrial armor that refuses to let him go. As the armor’s inscrutable will tightens its grip, Faceless finds a bizarre, labyrinthine world of impossible logic and nightmarish wonder as Faceless and his unlikely family must embark on a harrowing quest to free him—if freedom is even possible . . .
