‘If Destruction Be Our Lot’ Launches in May from Image Comics

Posted on by

if-destruction-be-our-lotMatthew Rosenberg and Mark Elijah Rosenberg are teaming up with artist Andy Macdonald for a new sci-fi series from Image Comics, launching May 6.

If Destruction Be Our Lot is set in a future where humanity is gone and robots have inherited the planet. Most of them are content to keep running the systems humans left behind. One of them is not.

The series centers on Abe, a robotic version of Abraham Lincoln who begins to question the routine of post-human life and sets out beyond the edge of the city in search of something more. The book blends science fiction with existential comedy, leaning into questions of purpose and connection through a world populated entirely by machines.

Francesco Segala handles colors, with lettering by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou. The first issue will feature multiple variant covers and will be available in comic shops and on digital platforms. Issue #1 arrives May 6.

First Look: Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 2 Goes Back to School

Posted on by

rick-and-mortyRick and Morty’s manga incarnation is returning with Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 2: After-School Science Club, the latest collaboration between Oni Press and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products. Following the characters’ first manga outing, the new volume shifts its focus to high school life, after-school clubs, and the unexpected chaos of teenage romance.

Written by Josh Tierney and illustrated by JeyOdin, the story kicks off when Morty falls for a Japanese exchange student and ropes Rick into advising a hastily formed Science Club. What begins as a school rivalry quickly escalates into interdimensional mayhem, including a trip to Akihabara and a deeply questionable student-run maid café experiment.

The second volume leans fully into manga tropes while keeping the show’s signature absurdism intact, blending slice-of-life humor with sci-fi escalation. After-School Science Club continues the Rick and Morty manga line with a self-contained story that plays fast and loose with both school rules and the multiverse.
