Michael Green, the Oscar-nominated screenwriter for Blade Runner 2049, and co-writer Mike Johnson (Star Trek, Supergirl) begin a new story in the smash hit sci-fi comic set in the iconic world of Blade Runner! Seven years after her disastrous last case, veteran Blade Runner Ash is low on cash and short on options… Illustrated by Andres Guinaldo (Justice League Dark, Captain America).
Michael Green is an American television and film writer, as well as a comic book scripter. Green grew up in Mamaroneck, New York.

Green is the creator and writer of Kings, an NBC drama based on the biblical story of King David but set in an alternate present. Kings premiered on 15 March 2009 but was cancelled soon after. The remainder of season 1 (thirteen episodes) was shown in the summer of 2009.
This is essential a continuation of the first story that was wrapped up in the first four installments. There is a time jump of seven years from that part and Ash and Cleo are now living off-world in hiding from the bad cooperation who want Cleo badly. They are once again found by trouble.
Great art and an interesting new direction for a new story about the Replicants and their hunters, but who hunts and who is the hunted.
We find Cleo and Ash on an off-world slave colony. Cleo has grown up and has a shaved head. Her nickname is Rabbit. She barters with Replicants. There is some sort of revolt on the colony, the details of which we don't get. This addition was extremely short. Cleo is still dependent but is starting to figure out her situation.
