Nightcrawlers #2 - "The Apostate"
The first issue – 10 years into the future – is about the ultimate futility of authoritarianism. The tendency for control to eat itself. It's about the oh-so-human realization that when the jackboots are empty and the dictators are out of ideas, what rises to reclaim the light is the wild spark of humanity. Kindness. And big ideas. (The problem is: that last one can get you in trouble. As we shall see...) The second issue – 100 years into the future – is about identity and meaning. It's about a group of people who've shackled themselves to one Big Idea, starting to worry that it might be the wrong one. It's about parenthood and legacy, and stealing magical shit from the most powerful beings in the universe. It's about ritual and love. Above all, it's about saying "why?" to power. -- Si Spurrier
