Twenty years after the release of their groundbreaking album They're Only Chasing Safety, the Grammy-nominated band Underoath presents a mesmerizing graphic novel that delves deep into the album's powerful themes, reimagining them in a dark, dystopian future. In a world where humanity has long since vanished, replaced by digital entities and cold, unfeeling machines, a lone synthetic being named Trial awakens. Unlike the countless failed experiments before her, Trial is the closest creation to a perfect human replica. Her existence is not a mere accident; she was designed with a purpose. Guided only by a fragmented recording from the long-dead scientist who created her, Trial learns of the tragic downfall of humanity and her critical mission: to restore the human race from oblivion. As she navigates this unnerving and hostile post-human world, filled with towering megastructures and relentless AI overlords, Trial must unravel the mysteries of her own creation, the fate of her creator, and the key to bringing humans back. But the path to restoring humanity is fraught with danger, as malevolent digital entities view her mission as a threat to their dominion. With time running out and the odds stacked against her, Trial must complete the scientist's work before she too is lost to the void. This graphic novel blends high-stakes suspense with poignant themes of identity, loss, and the enduring human spirit. It's a haunting exploration of what it means to be human in a world that has forgotten humanity. Can Trial succeed where countless others have failed, or will the last hope for mankind be extinguished forever?
