Following up on the critically acclaimed Count, which reimagines the story of The Count of Monte Cristo, Eisner-nominated writer and artist Ibrahim Moustafa returns to Humanoids with a science fiction tale. Retroactive features Tarik Abdelnasser, an agent of the U.S. Bureau of Temporal Affairs investigates the source of several temporal anomalies, only to become trapped in an endless time loop. Joined by colorist Brad Simpson and letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, Moustafa puts time travel to the test in this new 136-page softcover trade, available now from Humanoids. Check out a preview below.
The discovery of time travel is unknown to the general public, but a new Cold War rages between global intelligence agencies as they attempt to alter historical events in favor of their respective futures. When new intel points the U.S. Bureau of Temporal Affairs (BTA) toward a hostile anomaly in the past, veteran field agent Tarik Abdelnasser and his new partner, Lucia Olmos, are dispatched to investigate. They discover a radical adversary wielding a new technology that could unravel everything the BTA fights to maintain.
