The hotly-anticipated eco-fiction tech thriller-meets-love-story from the award-winning, visionary team of Ann Nocenti (Daredevil, Ruby Falls) and David Aja (Hawkeye, Immortal Iron Fist)!

The bees are swarming. What do they know that we don't?

In a broken-down world, a rebellious group of ruthless romantics have fled a tech-obsessed society to create their own... and a few cantankerous aliens have come to harvest the last seeds of humanity.

When one of them falls in love with a human, idealistic journalist Astra stumbles into the story of a lifetime, only to realise that if she reports it, she'll destroy the last hope of a dying planet.

How far will she go for the truth?
