Promised a better life on Exodus, a terraformed planet where all of nature, including its imported animal population, was completely controlled by humans called Wardens, including Rook, who controls the world’s crows. But when Exodus’s world engine failed—and many Wardens’ power fell into the wrong hands—the resulting chaos led to mass evacuation…for those who could afford it. The rest, like Rook, must scavenge for an escape vessel as the war for control of what’s left of Exodus begins. The creators of the groundbreaking and best-selling Batman: Three Jokers unleash their first creator-owned sci-fi series together with Ghost Machine’s ROOK: EXODUS in this first deluxe edition hardcover. Collects Rook: Exodus #1-6.
