Description

After Red and her friends are killed by invaders from beyond, they’re revived inside massive organic battle-mechs. Time to take their planet back! It’s a truly epic graphic novel about global crisis, mental health, and giant robots.

The world is being ravaged by four terrifying robotic monsters. One fateful night, four friends venture out to watch a meteor shower and come face-to-face with doom…only to find that their story is just beginning.

Returned to life by a mysterious natural power, these young adults are chosen to bear the only weapons that might turn the tide against the invaders: ancient, enormous forest-monsters that they can pilot from within! They’re enormously powerful…but when you’re struggling with the trauma of your own death, is that really the best time to become a living weapon of mass destruction?

Packed with captivating character designs, epic-scale battle scenes, and thorny questions, Undergrowth is a book about kids trying to do the impossible…and they just might pull it off.Ricky Lima is a writer and maker from Brampton, Ontario.
