Fight the Digital Status-Quo in Mosely #2

Posted on by

BOOM! Studios has revealed a first look at Mosely #2, the next issue of the brand new five-issue limited series from Farmhand creator and co-creator of Chew, Rob Guillory, highly acclaimed artist Sam Lotfi, colorist Jean-Francois Beaulieu, and letterer Andrew Thomas, chronicling one man’s attempt to take down the mighty idols of technology that have captivated the world in the near future. Available in stores February 15, 2023.

As Mosely reels from the recent events that bestowed the Holy Hammer upon him, he’s overwhelmed by the legions of “upgraded” civilians, with Robo-Enforcers hell bent on keeping the digital status-quo in place. Mosely finds himself with more tangible foes, a daunting task–wreck the three robo-gods that run the city from their towering pyramids–and… deal with the return of someone special from his past? Beginning here, each issue includes a bonus story written and drawn by Rob Guillory for wall-to-wall content!

Mosely #2 features main cover art by series artist Lotfi, and variant covers by series creator Guillory, and highly acclaimed artists Andrew MacLean and Nick Pitarra.
