OUT OF TIME.||Set in a brutal, fully painted world of anthropomorphic animals—equal parts|Inglourious Basterds|and|Watership Down|—ESCAPE is a gritty, bullet-riddled journey through war’s scorched aftermath. It’s about the violence we inflict, the souls we try to save, and the courage it takes to crawl out of fire.|From the creative team of|New York Times|bestselling author Rick Remender (|Deadly Class, Uncanny X-Force|) and powerhouse Daniel Acuña (|Captain America, Black Panther|)—the duo behind Marvel’s|Uncanny Avengers|—comes a savage, full-throttle wartime thriller where survival isn’t given… it’s taken. Milton Shaw is a battle-hardened bomber pilot, flying missions over a war-torn world ruled by a ruthless empire. But when his plane is shot out of the sky, Milton wakes up behind enemy lines—in the smoldering ruins of a city he helped burn. And in less than 24 hours, his own side is dropping the big one to finish the job. Now, injured, unarmed, and being hunted through enemy streets, Milton’s only shot at escape comes from the unlikeliest place: a grieving father and his son—civilians shattered by the same fascist regime that rules this land with an iron claw. Enemies by blood. Allies by circumstance. Together, they’ll have to fight their way out before the bomb drops and erases everything… and everyone.|Collects issues #1-6
