Reunited with their leader Grant McKay, the Anarchist League of
Scientists dive deeper into the Onion than ever before. Now veterans of
inter-dimensional travel, the team begins to realize how damaging their
actions are on the fabric of reality. No longer content with merely
fixing the Pillar and finding a way back home, they vow to uphold a new
ideal: leave every dimension they visit better off than how they found
it. Their idealism is put to the test, as infighting and conspiracy
within the group put not only themselves, but all of the Eververse at
risk. As Grant struggles to keep his children safe, he begins to see the
cracks in his team's commitment and trust towards one another. Just as
he wanted to use the Pillar to achieve his dreams and hopes, so, it
seems, did everyone else. And he has no idea how far some people are
willing to go to see their ambitions met. Beset by dangers from all
sides, the League barrels through dimension after dimension, struggling
to do good, but nevertheless heading straight towards catastrophe!
The
juggernaut creative team of writer Rick Remender and artist Matteo
Scalera return to deliver the most thrilling and vibrant arc of Black
Science yet, combining dark and fascinating character drama with
mind-bending sci-fi pulp action and gorgeously rendered visuals to
deliver one of the most fast-paced and exciting monthly comics on the
stands.
