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

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.
