But, like her parents, Mila doesn't like to play by the rules, and when a certain robot pal of her dad's shows up, nothing will ever be the same!

Reviews


As a sequel to 'Descender', can you walk right into 'Ascender'? You can!


Jeff Lemire and Dusting Nyguen bring a light touch to the story of an oppressed people. Many don't know they're oppressed. Many don't care. All too few know there is nothing they can do about it. The oppressors, led by a piece of work they call 'Mother', are only trying for complete control over a universe. Nothing wrong with lofty goals right?


Mother is confident in her rule. Robots used to oppose her ilk, but they're all gone now. Or are they? Look to the stars, and beware the hound with the backwards tongue.
