In 2089, in the aftermath of the most recent world war, the former United States is controlled by four trillionaires, and artificial intelligence has taken over most jobs. Kenji Sato and Aurora Withers are among the lucky ones—employed by a prestigious robotics company. But when they’re terminated too, replaced by the very androids they created, the couple hatches the ultimate revenge plan.

Each issue features covers by Dalibor Talajić and variant covers by Goran Parlov (The Punisher). In addition, there will be incentive covers from Mike Deodato, Roland Boschi, Sean Phillips, and Dani!

Colors by Stjepan Bartolic, letters by Shawn Lee.

“Silicon Bandits #1 captures the current moment of A.I.” - Graphic Policy

“A painfully relevant and hugely gripping caper in equal measure.” - AIPT Comics

“The timeliness of a book focusing on the ethical concerns surrounding artificial intelligence is hard to understate, but Starr manages to explore these themes without going too heavily-handed into the “right or wrong” argument…Describing your comic as ‘Blade Runner meets Oceans Eleven’ is almost setting your readers up to be disappointed, but I’m happy to report that Starr, Talajić and the rest of the creative team absolutely nail that lofty claim.” - Big Comic Page

“I can’t express enough how much I love each and every panel they created.” - Chris’s Comics Corner

“Jason Starr’s premise, accompanied by the incredible graphic and narrative work of Dalibor Talajic and the colors of Stjepan Bartolic make this Silicon Bandits a book that you can’t miss, a future world so feasible that it’s scary.” - Alex Cal Oliveira (ACO)

“Jason Starr's smooth scripting eases you into this absorbing, post-World-War-Five crime thriller, and Dalibor Talajic's androids are as expressive as his humans." - Stuart Moore

Near death experiences get a horrifying twist from novelist Jason Starr!

It's the near future, and some people who have had Near-Death Experiences have come back "changed." They exhibit extreme behavioral changes, becoming increasingly paranoid and violent, and no one knows why. People who have had NDE's fall immediately under suspicion, and in some cases, are murdered by justice-seeking vigilantes. It is in this world where Beth, a quiet high school student with a bright future, will learn just how quickly friends and family will turn on her when she has the bad luck of surviving the worst night of her life... Award-winning novelist Jason Starr (Wolverine Max, The Chill) and artist Andrea Mutti (Conan, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) deliver a gripping but deeply human drama set in an uncertain world. Collects the complete story from The Returning #1-#4.
