Titan Comics and Alcon Publishing are thrilled to share a first glimpse at the artwork, covers, and details for the upcoming chapter in their BLADE RUNNER: BLACK LOTUS saga, BLADE RUNNER: BLACK LOTUS - LAS VEGAS #1.

The press release follows:

Media Release -- Titan Comics and Alcon Publishing are excited to reveal the first look at art, covers and details for the next adventure in their BLADE RUNNER: BLACK LOTUS saga.

BLADE RUNNER: BLACK LOTUS - LAS VEGAS continues the adventure of Elle, a female combat Replicant created by Niander Wallace (Blade Runner 2049, Blade Runner: Black Lotus).

Written by Eisner Award nominated author Nancy A. Collins (Blade Runner: Black Lotus, Swamp Thing), with art by Jesus Hervas (Blade Runner: Origins), BLADE RUNNER: BLACK LOTUS - LAS VEGAS continues the story started in the 2021 cult anime series, and the events of the first BLADE RUNNER: BLACK LOTUS comic book story arc, "LEAVING L.A.".

With Issue #1 out in comic book shops this September, this all-new adventure (set in the year 2032) sees the deadly Replicant combat model Elle – aka The Black Lotus Killer still searching for answers to her mysterious past.

Her quest takes her to the irradiated city of Las Vegas (briefly glimpsed in BLADE RUNNER 2049), now a ghost-town following the detonation of a dirty bomb.

There she finds a community of Replicants who once serviced the casinos as the living embodiments of ancient Egyptians and Romans. Meanwhile Niander Wallace, inheritor of the Replicant technology of Eldon Tyrell, has dispatched a battle-hardened squad of mercenaries to track her and bring her back dead or alive.

BLADE RUNNER: BLACK LOTUS - LAS VEGAS #1 releases in the same month as new deluxe, omnibus editions of the original Blade Runner graphic novels chronicling the critically-acclaimed Ash saga (2019, 2029, and 2039).

Fans can order their copy of BLADE RUNNER: BLACK LOTUS - LAS VEGAS from their local comic book store, and Forbidden Planet for UK & Europe.
