Two renegade AI minds want to simply make conversation—not war!

When a bipedal, independent robot soldier makes a unique connection with an injured, flying drone, they flee the warzone they’re in to seek lives of their own. Their military builders want to destroy them, though, while a sympathetic pair of humans tries what they can to free the errant ’bots from military service!

Steve Parkhouse, artist and co-creator of Resident Alien, joins writer Geoffrey D. Wessel in this thrilling tale of friendship and survival!
Geoffrey D. Wessel was born in New Jersey, raised in Chicago, and has spent the last 20 years in Indiana, mostly Indianapolis, sometimes in Muncie. Geoffrey’s current projects include the sports-crime thriller webcomic KEEPER with Jeff Simpson + Jim Campbell, and the forthcoming sci-fi comic DISCHARGED with Alwyn Talbot. He has also done numerous short comics, many of which can be found here or at Hadron Colliderscope. He also has a television credit to his name, having contributed the basic plot idea for episode seven of Current TV’s 2011 “community created” fantasy series Bar Karma.
