A stylish noir-punk thriller set in a world stripped of its color and humanity.

A cosmic disaster changed the Earth forever, stripping away every last drop of color from the world. Mankind also changed: the familiar human face is almost forgotten in a world now populated wholly by mutants. Against the backdrop of a moody urban landscape, a lone wolf investigator named Avidia relies on both his wits and extraordinary gun to hunt down the world's last hidden scraps of color. He soon crosses paths with a very special girl-one who just might hold the key to bringing back what the world has lost.

1st printing. Story and art by Darryl Cunningham. An unvarnished, critical graphic biography of the tech innovator and presidential confidant by the author/illustrator of Putins Russia: The Rise of a Dictator and Billionaires: The Lives of the Rich and Powerful. Darryl Cunninghams new graphic biography of Elon Musk is a riveting deep-dive into the audacious mind and tumultuous journey of the worlds richest man. Using his signature pictographic style—clean lines, vivid colors, and lean panel compositions—Cunningham peels back the layers of myth around Musk to deliver a timely portrait that is provocative and informative. Spanning several generations, the book traces Musks journey from his family roots in South Africa and his grandfathers role in the Technocracy Movement to his current position at the apex of tech power and far-right politics. From Musks early education and influences, the creation of PayPal, and the meteoric rise of Tesla and SpaceX thanks to millions in government handouts, to his ascension as a dark MAGA influencer and kingmaker, Elon Musk: American Oligarch captures the tension, tumult, and chaos in which oligarchs thrive today. Cunninghams award-winning clarity and style sparkle as he presents freewheeling financial and engineering concepts used by startups and tech companies. This fast-paced biography reveals the complex interactions of visionary ideas, relentless drive, and unyielding ambition. Elon Musk: American Oligarch offers a fresh, unvarnished look at Musks rise, aggressive leadership style, and appetite for risk-taking that have propelled him into a unique position as an unelected private business owner with unprecedented access to political power.
