Get an exclusive look at Silent Jenny from Mathieu Bablet, a new graphic novel from Magnetic Press and Oni Press on Kickstarter now.
In the book, per PR provided to Comic Book Club, “SILENT JENNY explores a not-too-distant future, where climate change continues to ravage the planet, and the disappearance of insects has led to the end of pollination, rendering vast areas of land infertile. A survival dynamic has emerged—mobile cities called “monads” have formed, and people strive to help each other; each group with its own customs, traditions, and ways of life.
“Jenny is a rather solitary researcher trying to restore the world as it once was. She seeks to recover bee DNA to clone and re-create pollinating insects. However, she will come to realize that this is impossible—the old world no longer exists, and a new one must be built. She will have to make peace with the notion that all things come to an end, no matter how much you may fight the inevitable.”
Said Bablet of the graphic novel, “I’m thrilled that after Shangri-La and Carbon & Silicon, the American public will finally discover the end of my science fiction trilogy! I hope you enjoy this plunge into the underworld, exploring the wastelands, and traveling aboard the monads!”
