Blade Runner Black Lotus - Las Vegas #1 (Titan, 2025)

LOS ANGELES, 2032 Waking up in a derelict complex somewhere in the desert, a young woman called Elle, with no memory of her past, discovered that she and several other people have been brought there to be hunted for sport in a sadistic big-game safari. Displaying incredible survival and combat skills, only Elle managed to escape the hunt and she found herself drawn to the nearest city: Los Angeles. There she learned that she was a prototype Replicant codenamed Black Lotus, created by Niander Wallace Jnr as an unwitting assassin and part of his plot to seize control of the Wallace Corporation from his father. Following a violent confrontation with Niander Wallace Jnr that left him blind and his father, Wallace Snr, and Elle's Replicant sister White Lotus dead, Elle fled into the desert on a Spinner bike in search of a new life, free from violence, bloodshed and death. She subsequently found safe haven with an environmental commune living sustainably in the desert, but was forced to defend it from attack from a nearby fracking plant. The resulting battle destroyed the plant and saved the community but also alerted Niander to the fact that Elle was still alive. Once again, Elle set off into the desert, unaware that Niander, still obsessed with his young Replicant assassin, was determined to recapture her at any cost...
