The most ambitious comics event of 2016 brings war to the 41st century – with Rai leading the charge!

Rai is smashing headfirst into New Japan with his team of hardened rebels including the Eternal Warrior and a giant X-O Manowar mech-armor that’s been dormant for centuries! But when Father transforms New Japan into an impenetrable space dragon as a defense of last resort, what hopes will the united heroes of 4001 A.D. have of freeing the citizens of New Japan from Father’s brutal reign? Will Rai have to destroy New Japan…to save it?

New York Times best-selling writer Matt Kindt (DIVINITY II) and superstar artist Clayton Crain (X-Force) bring their startling vision of the year 4001 A.D. to new heights…with the fate of New Japan floating in the balance!

*Text from original press release

Clay Crain’s art is just about as awesome as you could imagine here, as 4001 heats up in the second issue of the currently rolling four-part story. The event book will run for most of the Summer, with almost all of Valiant’s roster bleeding in here and there, and damn does it look fantastic.

Not only from Crain of course, writer Matt Kindt is supplying the storyline for 4001 A.D. here in issue #2 (of 4), so you know it’s going to not just be a pretty book, but chances are it’ll be a great read as well.

The book hits stands and digital formats on June 1st.
