New York Time bestselling and fan favorite Mighty Morphin Power Rangers writer Ryan Parrott debuts an original comic at BOOM! Studios and is joined by acclaimed artist Eleonora Carlini (Go Go Power Rangers) for a brand-new sci-fi psychological thriller in VICARIOUS.
“There are some ideas that get stuck in your head and you just keep coming back to them over and over again,” said series writer and co-creator Ryan Parrott. “What would it be like to be able to see through someone else’s eyes and feel what they feel? How would that kind of technology change the world? Who would use it, who wouldn’t and why? It was just a notion when I first pitched it to BOOM! Studios, but with their guidance and Eleonora Carlini’s amazing artwork, Vicarious has turned into a sexy, futuristic neo noir that deals with identity, duality and the value of our lives and experiences.”
“The idea that someone can live and see through my eyes fascinates and disturbs me at the same time and Ryan was able to tell it very well!” said series artist and co-creator Eleonora Carlini. “Kept these feelings in mind and I pushed the aesthetics into grotesque and linear graphic codes, trying to give the pages a freshness and the immediacy that could give the sensation of a trip into another person’s experience.”
Justin is your average 20-something burnout–no real connections with anyone or prospects on his horizon. But, after a dangerous encounter reveals itself as a fortuitous opportunity, Justin finds just what his life has been missing in the secret world of Proxies–young, attractive, ambitious hustlers like himself who allow the rich access to their feelings and experiences through a cutting edge technological implant.
Does Justin have what it takes to make it in this seductive new world?
