Free Planet #9
Description
NEW STORY ARC: Co-creator and artist Jed Dougherty teams with writer Aubrey Sitterson to kick off a new six-issue arc that picks up right after Free Planet, Vol. 1. In Lutheria, under a crushing embargo, citizens starve and riot as the Freedom Guard weighs turning its weapons on its own people. The saga blends political intrigue, space opera, and blistering action as ships breach the skies and the line between ally and traitor blurs. One conflicted soldier confronts a desperate act of treason that could shatter Lutheria's hard-won independence. With Dougherty's kinetic art and Sitterson's sharp world-building, the comic thread tightens a story about power, sacrifice, and the cost of freedom in a solar system-wide struggle. Dougherty's dynamic layouts and Sitterson's political shading invite both action fans and readers who relish intricate world-building.
