Atmos Exordium
Exordium is a nine chapter comic book series that takes place 500 years in the future on a planet called Atmos. Atmos is a hostile planet with extreme weather conditions, and the series follows a season of ExoGP — the competitive flight-based racing league on Atmos.
The story follows the journey of Addy, a young racer who must overcome all odds to achieve his dream of becoming the greatest racer in history. The story is full of fast-paced action and thrilling racing scenes, and explores the complex relationships between Addy and his rivals as they battle it out on the track.
Atmos Exordium is led by Tommy Lee Edwards, a highly respected and versatile creator, working in comics, movies, and production. He has worked on projects like The Book of Eli, Harry Potter, Star Wars, and Batman Begins.
His work is characterized by a strong sense of visual storytelling and world-building. He is a leader in the industry, with a talent for creating rich and compelling universes that resonate with audiences.
The Cast
- Addy Aker
Addy was born into a cult that indoctrinated her from birth. They believed that she was destined to become a killer, and so they trained her in the art of murder. However, she has managed to escape her blood-soaked destiny and fled to Planet Atmos.
Here, she has sold her deadly talents to the Talon Gar, Atmos’s preeminent criminal organization. She is about to embark on a planetside heist that will change her life forever.
- Oz Vulkansson
Oz Vulkansson is the son of Heff Vulkansson, a legendary fabricator on the ExoGP racing stage. Driven from the cradle into an Exo suit by the indomitable will of his perfectionist father, Oz’s innate talent and hunger for victory are such that on any other world he would reign as undisputed racing champion. But Atmos is not just any other world.
Racing on Atmos is a different beast altogether. The courses are more treacherous, the competition fiercer, and the margin for error razor thin. Oz has had to learn to race differently if he wants to survive and win on Atmos.
So far, Oz has proven himself more than capable of mastering this unique form of racing. He has already won several races and is quickly becoming one of the favorites to take home the championship this year.
With his father’s guidance and support, there is no doubt that Oz will continue to be a force to be reckoned with on the track.
- Rogg
Rogg is an ExoGP racer who has been making a name for himself as the new face of the league. He’s won back-to-back championships and is looking to take a third this season.
Rogg is known for being an unstoppable force on the racetrack, but he’s also been masterfully marketed, which has helped distance the league from Atmos’ legacy of unsanctioned, brutal racing.
