When Earth's young outcasts are exiled to "Scare City," a vast outpost on a distant desert planet, they must find a path to redemption or be destroyed by their own violence.
In an interview with Bleeding Cool, Alexander delves more into the plot, "Concrete Park is a mystery in itself. They live in a place called 'Scare City' because everything's so scary, and everything's so frickin' scarce. It's straight out of Jack Kirby or Stan Lee. The planet is called Oasis, but again, that's a lie because nothing grows there. There's no water, everything's down in the planet, and they're mining ice and sending it back, but they have no access to it. When they get up there, they have a question to answer: Will they continue the violence and tribalism that they learned on Earth, or will they make something new? And by the way, on that planet, they are the aliens. Where did the original inhabitants go?
From the pages of Dark Horse Presents, the critically acclaimed Concrete Park will be collected into its first volume, You Send me. The collection comes with a "director's cut" hardcover, with all-new pages, and bonus materials.
Make sure to be in stores when Concrete Park Vol.1: You Send Me hits stores on October 1. Concrete Park: R-E-S-P-E-C-T #1 will make its debut on September 3.
