PORTLAND, Ore. 07/05/2024 — Rook: Exodus #1 by Geoff Johns (Geiger, Superman, Batman: Three Jokers), Jason Fabok (Batman: Three Jokers), Brad Anderson, and Rob Leigh is a star on the rise and has sold out completely at the distributor level yet again. The debut issue of this Ghost Machine fan-favorite will be rushed back to print by Image Comics in order to keep up with escalating demand.
“We couldn’t be more excited and humbled by the news that Rook: Exodus #1 has sold out again and gone back to print for a fourth printing. We are excited because our creation is getting out into more and more hands and readers are getting a chance to meet these new characters and explore the world we have created. And we are humbled because of the support we have received from the comic book readership as well as the comic book retailers who have backed our books right from the beginning,” said Fabok. “We hope those who pick up Rook:exodus will come along this journey with us as we build an epic adventure, filled with action, suspense, twists and turns. Issue #1 is but the beginning! Geoff Johns, Brad Anderson, Rob Leigh, myself and the entire Ghost Machine team want to thank you for the support. We couldn’t do this without you!”
In Rook: Exodus, hundreds of years from now, the man known as Rook was once a simple farmer who fled the crumbling Earth for a new life on the planet Exodus; a terraformed planet where all of nature, including its imported animal population, was completely controlled by humans called Wardens. But when Exodus’s world engine failed, the Wardens’ power fell into the wrong hands, creating chaos and mass evacuation…for those who could afford it. The rest, like Rook, must scavenge for an escape vessel as the war for control of what’s left of Exodus begins.
