    Highguard’s last hurrah.

    Jonathan Djob Nkondo, an artist who helped shape the sci-fi show’s distinctly alien look, launched a Kickstarter for a pair of graphic novels that look very similar in tone. The campaign already surpassed its goal, and the books are expected to start shipping later this year. (Fun fact: he also contributed to the beautiful new Gorillaz short film.)
