Vault Comics has announced a zodiac-inspired 12-issue science-fiction comic series called Engineward, by George Mann, Joe Eisma, Michael Garland, Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou and Tim Daniel.

"I couldn't be happier to be working with Joe and the team at Vault Comics," Mann said in a statement. "This is a story that's been brewing in my head for nearly a decade, and seeing Joe breathing life into these characters is something very special indeed. He's bringing such a fantastic look to the series. I can't wait for the people to meet Joss, Ichabod, Kreek, and Thrycia, and to delve deep into the mythology of the Celestials alongside us. It's going to be a wild ride!"

In this new series, Earth is a long-forgotten ancient myth, and the god-like Celestials, who embody the surviving zodiac signs, rule with brutal efficiency. However, an Engineward named Joss learns that all is not as intended when she discovers and reactivates the head of a fossilized Ghoulem. Her destiny ultimately lies somewhere far beyond the borders of her shantytown. And the truth about her imperious rulers will be discovered.

"I'm so fired up about Engineward," Eisma added. "I have always wanted to work in this genre space since the beginning of my career, and I'm so excited about this book! George has crafted a thrilling and intricate story that I know will excite readers. Crafting this world with him has really energized my art, and I can't wait for everyone to join us on this epic journey across our compelling world!"
