Freedom under corporate control

In a California desert shaped by Better Living Industries’ control, the original Killjoys’ struggle has become a fading cause. The Girl, the sole survivor of their fight, is left to carry their mantle as BLI suppresses individuality and the movement’s followers lose hope. The collected edition brings together issues #1–6 and the story “Dead Satellites,” framing its science-fiction conflict around resistance, identity, and the legacy passed from one generation of rebels to the next.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in science-fiction comics about resistance to corporate power.
  • Those drawn to stories exploring individuality and the legacy of a rebellion.
