ESSENTIALS HC VOL 01 BILL SIENKIEWICZ PREMIERE ED WITH GOLD FOIL SLIPCASE Previously Solicited Thru Other Distributors

InEssentials introduces a mind-bending, post-apocalyptic graphic novel from The Lab. Mathematician Harris Pax predicted the end of the world but failed to stop it. Now he hides in a bunker as his niece's talking toys hint at a way back. He learns that other survivors are scattered across alternate realities—imprisoned in imagined worlds filled with zombies, robots, mythical creatures, and chaos. To restore reality and save humanity, Pax teams with an unlikely ally on a cross-country quest that travels beyond ordinary science into interdimensional danger. With a premiere edition hardback featuring a gold-foil slipcase, the book showcases a multi-artist lineup including Glenn Fabry, Jason Howard, Vince Locke, Brendan McCarthy, Andrea Mutti, M.K. Perker, and Dani, all guided by writer co-creators Luke Arnold and Chris Doc Wyatt. Cover art by Bill Sienkiewicz adds a striking silvery glow to the visuals.
