DSTLRY has revealed Defiant, a gripping new science-fiction series from Emmy-nominated and GLAAD Award-winning writer Chuck Austen and prolific Marvel and DC artist Patrick Olliffe. This project marks the final comic for Austen in a 40-plus-year career that includes defining runs on Avengers, The X-Men, Action Comics, Miracleman, and countless other volumes. 

Launching March 2025, Defiant follows Sandusky, a retired veteran from a cosmic war that spans a galaxy across countless species and planets. On a final mission to bury his son, Sandusky unravels a conspiracy behind the battles that consumed years of his life and implicated his son as a traitor, leading him on a final quest of vengeance spanning light years. Defiant is perfect for fans of Dune, Firefly, and Andor.
