Winner of the 2020 SCRIBE AWARD for best Graphic Novel, this critically acclaimed graphic novel, is the official sequel to the cult classic 1982 science fiction film directed by Ridley Scott. Co-written by Michael Green, the Academy Award nominated screenwriter of Logan, Blade Runner 2049, and Murder on the Orient Express. Return to the original rain-soaked dystopic world of Los Angeles, 2019. A hardboiled future noir world of renegade Replicants, deadly femme fatales, Spinners and bloody, violent death! There's a new Blade Runner in town, and she's out for blood. Replicant blood. When a rich industrialist's wife and young daughter go missing, seemingly the victims of a Replicant kidnapping, Blade Runner Ash is called in to rescue them before they end up on a slab or worse. As Ash's investigation deepens she uncovers a shocking secret that could very well end up costing her her life.

Born Hilda Doolittle, H.D. (1886–1961) was a poet and novelist notably associated with Imagism, an avant-garde literary movement that emerged in London during the early twentieth century. Her first, and perhaps best known collections of poetry, Sea Garden (1916) and The God (1917), exemplify the precise imagery and sharp language favoured by Imagism and her contemporaries Ezra Pound and William Carlos Williams. H.D.’s writing was often deeply personal, merging her unstable personal life, marred as it was with frequent illness and loss, with the evocative images and stories of the ancient world. Together with her lifelong companion Bryher, she travelled throughout Europe, in particular to Greece and Egypt, sites steeped in the mythology of old that would continue to inspire her late into her life and that would have a profound impact on her final poems, such as the revisionary epic Helen in Egypt (1961). Though somewhat overshadowed by her contemporaries in historical and critical accounts of the male-dominated modernist movements, H.D. is considered one of the most important and inimitable writers of her time.

Michael Green is a Wolfson Scholar and PhD research student in the Department of History of Art at University College London. He works within the intersections of art, literature, and psychoanalysis, and his current research is specifically engaged with how H.D.’s writings have been used in contemporary art practices.
