The folks at AfterShock Comics have announced a new series coming up this fall with the Patience! Conviction! Revenge! property. Set for a September 19th, 2018 debut, the book comes from writer Patrick Kindlon and artist Marco Ferrari. Ferrari is doing the main cover to the right while the variant cover below comes from Robert Hack. Check out some of the preview pages of the artwork below as well!
“A criminal genius is forced out of his organization. Instead of starting a pilates studio, he dedicates himself to revenge,” says writer Patrick Kindlon. “Years have passed, he’s amassed an army of robots, and is set to march on a glittering cyberpunk Las Vegas with the sole intention of crushing old friends under his boot. I’m a big fan of crime. In comics, books, movies, and sometimes in real life. I didn’t want to tackle a crime story myself until something really spoke to me. Without incriminating myself, I’ll tell you this is my most personal work to date. I never thought I’d say that about a Warren Ellis meets Elmore Leonard robot crime/revenge series, but comics is a crazy place.”
Plot Concept: Disregarded, disrespected and dismissed, Renny has a chip on his shoulder.
Once an equal partner in a criminal syndicate that rules Las Vegas, he now finds himself living in a shack in the desert. But the shack has a workshop, and Renny’s been busy. It’s time to march his robot army into the neon hell of a cyberpunk Vegas and retake his seat at the table. Or take the wood from the table and build enough caskets for the whole syndicate.
Old friends better run, because Operation PATIENCE! CONVICTION! REVENGE! is underway.
