Blade Runner 2039 Vol. 2
The second arc of Ash’s final adventure sees the retired Blade Runner reunited with Cleo Selwyn, her ward from the first Blade Runner graphic novel 2019. Together they must go on the run from the deadly and fanatical LUV, the first Replicant Blade Runner seen in the movie Blade Runner 2049.
It’s 2039 and Cleo Selwyn has finally returned to Los Angles to search for her surrogate Replicant mother Isobel who Cleo believes has been abducted on the orders of Niander Wallace.
Believing that that Cleo’s DNA holds the secret of Replicant fertility Wallace has ordered his own personal assistant Repicant, Luv, the world’s first Replicant Blade Runner to hunt down and return Cleo to him and to kill all who stand in her way.
Reuniting with former Blade Runner Aahna ‘Ash’ Ashina, Cleo and Ash set off on a road trip to find her mother with Luv hard on their heels.
