Rage Against the Machine… check. Audioslave… check. Sending an ass-load of swag to your favorite comic shop to celebrate the release of his new comic Orchid… possibly.
Guitar legend Tom Morello has been a kickass icon of rock music for decades, and he’s now bringing his unique artistic vision to the comic book world with the launch of his own title, Orchid, from Dark Horse Comics. If you play your cards right, your favorite comic book store can host the official launch party and land you and your friends loads of swag.
And just FYI, Dark Horse Comics tells us Orchid is “the tale of a teenage prostitute who learns that she is more than the role society has imposed upon her.” Ah, Tom Morello, always the lighthearted jokester.

About Orchid:
When the seas rose, genetic codes were smashed. Now human settlements are ringed by a dense wilderness, from which ferocious new animal species prey on the helpless. The high ground belongs to the rich and powerful, who overlook swampland shantytowns from their fortresslike cities. Iron-fisted rule ensures order and allows the wealthy to harvest the poor as slaves. Welcome to the world of Orchid.
