In 2132, life on Earth has reached the limits of sustainability.
Colonizing Mars has become our only option, and the construction of such a significant enterprise has required massive resources and manpower. The most cost-efficient solution to this requirement is conscripted labor provided by convicted felons—early access to humanity's future homeworld, but in exchange for the back-breaking and perilous work of constructing the damn thing.
Officer Jasmine Stenford is sent to Mars and sentenced to conscripted labor for a wrongful death committed on her watch. With little defense against the corruption on Earth, she has no idea what sort of nightmare awaits her on the Red Planet . . .
Brilliantly visualized by artist Grun, this explosive sci-fi prison drama by writer Sylvain Runberg introduces Jasmine to a broad spectrum of characters, factions, and political players who all have different ideas for this New World that is being built. Who is really in control? And can anyone truly claim a planet on the verge of forced evolution?
On Mars imagines a future where the true natures of mankind prove to be inescapable, no matter how far you travel.
