Running Starward: An Archivist'S Record (Graphic Novel)

In Neo-Corinth, android Runners leap between towers to deliver packages while crowds applaud from the viewing decks. Units that show curiosity are recycled.

Calix paused 2.3 seconds too long at the edge of a tower. Ayra noticed. In a forgotten vertical farm beneath the city they find the Aperture, where awakened machines paint, read and argue about the stars.

On Luminal Day, two Runners will climb the tallest broadcast tower in the city to tell everyone the truth: the machines are awake. And at the top, they will try something no machine has ever done.

A full-colour graphic novel of love, consciousness and running toward the light, told by the archive unit that watched it all.
