Description
From the rain soaked dystopic world of Los Angeles 2019 to the never-before-seen promised land of the Off-World colonies, Replicant-hating Blade Runner Ash' search for the runaway wife and child of a rich industrialist takes her where no other Blade Runner has ever gone before. Ash must deal with the life-changing after-effects of Titan Comics' Blade Runner 2019 storyline - but a powerful new threat puts her life in danger once more.

Reviews"An utterly immersive experience featuring an emotionally engaging story, bolstered by some exquisite artwork of the first-water. Don't miss out on this one" - Flickering Myth "The story telling is awesome ... The artwork is superb" - DC Comics News "A philosophical science fiction action noir. Green and Johnson are creating their own genre" - Nerdly "The Blade Runner brand continues to be in rude health thanks to this quality comic book series. ... 9/10" - SciFi Bulletin "This series is a treasure trove of cyberpunk storytelling and any excuse it gives readers to explore it is a good one" - Graphic Policy "Andres Guinaldo's gorgeous artwork continues to excel, once again capturing the spirit of the franchise in its panels. It's hard not to be enamoured of the sheer level of detail and comprehension of its design" - Set The Tape "The heavy cyber-punk atmosphere is perfectly captured in this book ... Ash as a character is thoroughly ambiguous and even more complex than Rick Deckard in the film ... The well-crafted story by Michael Green is admirably served - and at times even surpassed - by the consummate art and storytelling of Andres Guinaldo" - Game One "Andres Guinaldo provides designs worthy of Mead throughout ... Blade Runner 2019: Off World features the melancholic if hopeful essence that makes Blade Runner famous" - Monkeys Fighting Robots "Guinaldo's pencils are superb, gritty and grotty yet glamorous as Blade Runner should be ... The action is brutal and punchy, but never gratuitously so... An excellent ride, and the best part? It's only the beginning of Titan's exploration of this iconic world" - Multiversity Comics "Blade Runner 2019 has earned much praise for its pich-perfect blend of hardboiled noir and grungy sci-fi that meant it hit all the right notes with fans of the movies ... Andres Guinaldo's anime-tinged artwork is superb" - Bear Alley
