Ann Nocenti

Award-winning artist David Aja (Hawkeye, Immortal Iron Fist) and filmmaker, journalist, and comics writer Ann Nocenti (Daredevil, Catwoman) team up to tell an eco-fiction tech-thriller where flora and fauna have begun to mutate. The Seeds is also a story of love beyond race and gender, and of the resilience of both human and animal kind. The bees are swarming. What do they know that we don't? The rich have built walls around their wealth and scramble into escape rockets. The romantic and the ruthless cross over into the lawless wilds of Zone-B. A few cantankerous aliens have come to collect the last dregs of humanity's essence for the celestial embryo bank. One of them falls in love. Astra is an idealistic journalist who stumbles into the story of a lifetime, only to realize that if she reports it, she'll destroy the last hope of a dying world. How far will she go to get her story?

The Seeds

Sarah Sammis

In a particular city, there's a wall. On one side, technology. On the other electronics are forbidden. On both sides the environment is failing. There are also aliens (as in little gray men) who are collecting seeds (and planting some too). They are here to make a profit on the death of the planet.

The novel follows two humans. One is a woman in love with an alien. The other is Astra, a reporter looking for the scoop of a lifetime. Her directive is to sell papers — even if it means making up the story of bending the truth until it breaks.

The artwork is understandably gritty. The setting is framed against what has been left behind — trappings of our modern day world. Even on the technology rich side, things aren't what they once were.
