Orchid. Vol. 1
(Graphic Novel)

This volume reprints the comic-book series Orchid #1-#4 from Dark Horse Comics.

When corporate greed and environmental carelessness led to society's collapse, the seas rose and the landscape of the world was altered. Now, human settlements are ringed by a dense wilderness from which ferocious new animal species prey on the helpless. The high ground belongs to the rich and powerful, and iron-fisted rule ensures order, allowing the wealthy to harvest the poor as slaves. Born into this dystopian nightmare is Orchid, a young woman on a transformative journey from streetwise prostitute scrambling for survival to fierce warrior fighting to transform an unjust world. Orchid must confront her own internal demons as she learns that she is more than the role society has forced upon her. From the mind of master musician Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine, The Nightwatchman, Audioslave) with art by Scott Hepburn (Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic), Orchid is a groundbreaking work whose heroes must run a gauntlet of unspeakable beasts, pitiless violence, and overwhelming odds to try to reclaim their lives and their world.

"Suggested for mature readers."
