Archaia, an award-winning imprint of publisher BOOM!
Studios, invites you to pull on your racing gear and rev up your engines this
December for the new sci-fi adventure series Rocket Salvage. Creator/writer
Yehudi Mercado (Guardians of the Galaxy: Universal Weapon; Pantalones, TX) and
artist Bachan (Imagine Agents) give new meaning to the term “space race” with
this six-issue limited series about a disgraced former rocket racer named Primo
Rocket and his clone kids as they take off across the galaxy to escape the
alien gangsters targeting them.
“Yehudi and Bachan are exactly who you want to take you on a
crazy racing adventure through space,” said BOOM! Studios Editor-in-Chief Matt
Gagnon. “They’re two high-energy storytellers who are great at building new
worlds. And Rocket Salvage just happens to be filled with racing-obsessed
aliens and rocket ships! But the heart of this story is about a family sticking
together against all odds, and that’s what makes it a special project.”
Primo Rocket was the fastest racer in the galaxy until a
crash changed his fate and that of his space-station-city home, Rio Rojo. Now,
Primo is the owner of a spaceship salvage yard with his two “kids,” clones Beta
and Zeta. But everything changes after they become the target of a manhunt
leading them on a string of intergalactic adventures. It’s up to this
dysfunctional family to stay together and, ultimately, save their home.
Rocket Salvage #1 arrives in comic shops from Archaia on
December 17th with a cover price of $3.99
