IF DESTRUCTION BE OUR LOT VOL. 1

One robot dares to go beyond the walls of society to find the last remaining humans in this sci-fi adventure of the year where WALL-E meets Fallout. Humanity is extinct and all that remains are the robots who once helped us. The robots that once helped us are happier now, doing their work without human interference. But not Abraham Lincoln. Abe is haunted by the thought that there must be something more out there—that somewhere, human beings might still exist. After nearly getting killed, he's determined to wander the Earth until he finds them... or gets recycled trying. Join him on an epic quest to learn who lives beyond the walls, why no one ever comes back, and what it means to be truly alive. Artist ANDY MacDONALD (Wonder Woman, Doctor Strange), and writers MARK ELIJAH ROSENBERG (Approaching The Unknown, Year Million) and MATTHEW ROSENBERG (WHAT’S THE FURTHEST PLACE FROM HERE, WE’RE TAKING EVERYONE DOWN WITH US, 4 Kids Walk Into A Bank) bring you an ongoing story about finding purpose, holding onto hope, and really lonely robots.
