" ARCA is Jensen and Lonergan at their best. High-concept science fiction that is innovative, unexpected, and incredibly human." --Robert Venditti "An instantly gripping tale of preserving humanity in every sense." --Daniel Kibblesmith, writer of Loki, Princess Dinosaur and Netflix's Inside Job "ARCA is a singular work--a perfect bit of evidence showing a creative team in harmony. It's a visual treat, with deft, incisive writing and a vision of a last future that's both magnificent and horrifying ." -- Steve Orlando, writer of Spider-Man 2099, Wonder Woman and X-Men: Green "I'm jealous of ARCA in countless ways. It features spellbinding art by perhaps the most exciting new cartoonist in comics, Jesse Lonergan. Together with Van Jensen, they use the space opera to tell a story about class conflict as classic as it is relevant--the struggle of the young and hungry vs.
the old and rich to make a better world." --Pornsak Pichetshote, writer of The Good Asian, Infidel and The Dead Boy Detectives " ARCA is freaking amazing. I could not put it down. Easily one of the best comics I've read years." --Chris Brennaman, owner Infinite Realities Comics & Games "With ARCA, Jensen and Lonergan have created a powerful and memorable post-apocalyptic thriller presented through the eyes of an unforgettable protagonist in Persephone. A haunting potential future that will keep you glued to the page." --Alex Segura, bestselling author of SECRET IDENTITY " ARCA is a haunting reminder that the streets of every utopia are paved with the bad intentions of everyone that came before. Beautiful and uplifting.
It's Deep Space Nine meets the Twilight Zone, and I want more in this world." --Jason Inman, writer of Super Best Friend and host of Geek History Lesson podcast "An exciting sci-fi adventure and a haunting story of class and caste in a world that's not so unlike our own." --Thomas Mullen, author of the novels Darktown and Blind Spots " ARCA is speculative fiction at its best: moral questions shocking our systems in a future already visible to us today, delivered through page layouts both delightfully sophisticated and intuitive." --Nate Powell, artist of the National Book Award-winning March trilogy " ARCA presents a frighteningly plausible dystopia roiling with all the urgency of the global crises that seem to cascade across our screens by the minute. But dystopias are a dime a dozen. What makes ARCA an important and satisfying book are the deft plotting and resonant characterization of Van Jensen's script, and the innovative layouts and agile drawing in Jesse Lonergan's elevated cartooning style. A dazzling synthesis of works like STATION ELEVEN, SOLARIS, OUTLAND, BRAVE NEW WORLD, and SILENT RUNNING, ARCA finds avenues of expression all its own that will not fail to thrill even the most jaded reader. Get in! The hatch is closing!" --Phil Hester, artist of G reen Arrow, Gotham City: Year One, and co-creator of The Wretch and Firebreather.
