Overview

Artie is a droid programmed to endlessly perform a single task left in a world abandoned by humans. He is starting to wonder what meaning his task has. But when he and his only friend, Owen, a robotic bird, cast aside the only lives they've ever known in search of a brighter future, they encounter others that want nothing but to hold tight to the past. Join Artie the Robot and Owen the Vulture for a light-hearted, sci-fi adventure as they journey far and wide for the answer to one of life's greatest questions: "Why are we here?"

Author Biography

Jon Nielsen has been drawing silly pictures and putting them on the internet for at least a decade. He is known for his long running webcomic, Massive Pwnage, which ran for eight years. When he's not drawing comics or animating short cartoons for YouTube, he works at his local library, putting books away, and occasionally getting lost in the graphic novel section. He lives in Portland, Oregon with his small but formidable family. This is his first graphic novel. He currently works at the Multnomah County Gresham Library.
