Every newly discovered planet is unified culturally through a monolithic structure known as the Galactic Relay. Although the towering monument is meant to inspire conformity of ideas- technology- and progress - many resent the foreign structure. Jad Carter- a Relay employee- must keep the peace and act as an emissary to new civilizations. But when he finds the Relay's mythological creator- Hank Donaldson- his idea of reality and the universe shatters. Equal parts The Fifth Element and Philip K Dick- and directly springboarding off the previously released Free Comic Book Day RELAY #0- this series is an exploration of monoculture- identity- and the deceptive nature of legend set in a thriving future where humanity forcibly assimilates new worlds. Written by Zac Thomspon (Cable- The Dregs- HER INFERNAL DESCENT)- with art by Andy Clarke (REPLICA- Batman)- and a story conceived by Zac Thompson- Eric Bromberg (PESTILENCE) and Donny Cates (BABYTEETH- Dr. Strange- Thanos- Venom- God Country)- this powerhouse of a series that HAD to be told at AfterShock!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AFTERSHOCK COMICS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":21542413336655,"sku":"MAY181312","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1064\/5512\/products\/aftershock-comics-relay-1-cvr-a-andy-clarke-1131611166.jpg?v=1742485205","url":"https:\/\/www.packratcomics.com\/products\/76538","provider":"Packrat Comics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
