Randall’s high-stakes adventure ‘Trekker’ is returning to the pages of Dark
Horse’s Eisner-winning anthology
“Trekker began her life in the very early pages of Dark Horse Presents,
so it’s terrific to have her return to print happen here as well. I honestly
couldn’t be happier, or feel that I’ve got a better publishing home for the
continuing adventures of Mercy St. Clair,” explained Randall. “The Train to Avalon Bay marks the fresh
beginning of a sustained and substantial return of this character. And I know
Dark Horse, with its flair for both high-voltage science-fiction comics and
creator-owned comics, is a perfect fit for these tales. I’ve been away from
Trekker for far too long, and I’m back for the long run now.”
Trekker is a retro-futuristic story of a talented, troubled bounty hunter,
Mercy St. Clair. Randall balances the strip’s focus among doses of smartly
paced action, intriguing explorations of Mercy’s world, and the arc of her
development as a thinking, feeling character immersed in a world of extreme
violence, intrigue and action.
“I have worked carefully to let readers hit the ground running with Mercy right
from the first new page, whether they’ve ever encountered Mercy before this or
not. If I’m doing my job right, they’ll easily get pulled into an adventure
that has both heart and guts and delivers a great payoff,” Randall said.
