Ascender & More This Week From Image Comics

Notorious kink writer Tina Horn teams up with artist Michael Dowling (Unfollow, Death Sentence) for SfSx, a social thriller about sex, love, and torture that reads like Sex Criminals meets The Handmaid’s Tale with Oceans 8—with a Sunstone twist! In a draconian America where sexuality is bureaucratized and policed, a group of queer sex workers keep the magic alive in an underground club called the Dirty Mind. Using their unique bondage skills, they resolve to infiltrate the mysterious government Pleasure Center, free their friends, and fight the power!

Ten years after the conclusion of Descender, magic has taken the place of machinery, and the rules are very different indeed. Mila, daughter of Andy and Effie, spends her days exploring the lonely wilds of the planet Sampson and trying to stay out of the clutches of the evil disciples of the all-powerful vampire witch known only as Mother. But, just like her parents, Mila doesn’t like to play by the rules, and when a certain robot pal of her dad’s shows up, nothing will ever be the same! With all the scope and heart of the sci-fi classic, Descender, powerhouse creative team Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen reunite to take readers on an unforgettable fantasy quest! Collects ASCENDER #1-5.
