FATAL ERROR SLIPCASE EDITION

ABSOLUTE SOLVER SLIPCASE EDITION

In the world of MURDER DRONES, a natural disaster in the far future has flash-frozen humanity’s remote mining exoplanet, Copper 9. Only now the “worker drones” – built by humanity and eventually outlived by them – have to rebuild society from the frozen ashes… An endeavor complicated by the appearance of “disassembly drones” vampiric robot counterparts  –  more commonly known as Murder Drones – that are hell-bent on wiping mechanical life from the planet and an unsettling computer virus known as the “Absolute Solver.”

MURDER DRONES is currently streaming in households worldwide on Prime Video, and the property is currently anchoring a new merchandising partnership with counterculture retailer Hot Topic that spans hundreds of storefronts throughout North America. Following the success of MURDER DRONES, Glitch quickly expanded its portfolio of animated properties to also include THE AMAZING DIGITAL CIRCUS, KNIGHTS OF GUINEVERE,and THE GASLIGHT DISTRICT – all fully self-funded and independently produced by the rapidly growing, Australia-based animation studio that has redefined the global paradigm of digital entertainment with more than 16 million followers on YouTube. Now entering its eighth year, the studio’s content is now prominently featured on multiple streaming platforms around the world, including Netflix and Prime Video.

Following on from Oni’s record-setting CULT OF THE LAMB and RICK AND MORTY pre-order campaigns on Kickstarter, the first MURDER DRONES graphic novel from Oni Press is now live on Kickstarter.
