Logan's Run: Black Flower: Black Flower: Graphic Novel
This epic adventure picks up where the famous novel left off. Logan has found Sanctuary a challenging existence. It's not the Utopia of Runner myths. He jumps at the chance to take on a dangerous mission to destroy Hourglass, the facility that controls the palm flowers-the implanted device dictating how long each person may live. However Hourglass is now under the control of another former Sandman-the ever dangerous Gant. Logan's Run Black Flower is the continuation of the iconic story started by science fiction masters William F. Nolan and George Clayton Johnson.

About the author
William F. Nolan
371 books238 followersWilliam F. Nolan is best known as the co-author (with George Clayton Johnson) of Logan's Run -- a science fiction novel that went on to become a movie, a television series and is about to become a movie again -- and as single author of its sequels. His short stories have been selected for scores of anthologies and textbooks and he is twice winner of the Edgar Allan Poe Special Award from the Mystery Writers of America.
Nolan was born in 1928 in Kansas City Missouri. He attended the Kansas City Art Institute and worked as an artist for Hallmark Cards. He moved to California in the late 1940s and studied at San Diego State College. He began concentrating on writing rather than art and, in 1952, was introduced by fellow Missouri native (and established writer) Ray Bradbury to another young up-and-coming author, Charles Beaumont. Moving to the Los Angeles area in 1953, Nolan became along with Bradbury, Beaumont, and Richard Matheson part of the "inner core" of the soon-to-be highly influential "Southern California Group" of writers. By 1956 Nolan was a full-time writer. Since 1951 he has sold more than 1500 stories, articles, books, and other works.
Although Nolan wrote roughly 2000 pieces, to include biographies, short stories, poetry, and novels, Logan’s Run retains its hold on the public consciousness as a political fable and dystopian warning. As Nolan has stated: “That I am known at all is still astonishing to me... "
He passed away at the age of 93 due to complications from an infection.

This was good until the ending, which confused me. I know where we are at story wise, but I was a little unclear how we got to that point. This volume reminded me a bit of Blade Runner with the different characters and the mission. This could have served as a definitive end to the series, but things continue.
