Hundreds of years after a global flood, night has been consigned to legend. In its place a vast network of artificial suns keeps the Earth basked in eternal daylight, powering factories that never cease. But this eternal dawn comes at a cost: The Earth has become a scrapheap, a wasteland stripped of resources to fuel colonial settlements on Mars. Amidst the ruins, two young scavengers on Earth stumble upon a discovery that changes everything forever.

The story spans centuries—from a submerged Cairo to the corporate strongholds of New York, and into the augmented reality of a distant Mars. Environmental collapse, capitalism, imperialism, and migration collide in an epic tale that examines the hopes and consequences of unchecked techno-optimism.

Includes a riveting foreword by Warren Ellis, sprawling introduction by Sim Kern, and hard-hitting afterword by Ho Che Anderson.

Praise for THE SOLAR GRID:

"THE SOLAR GRID is fantastic art, unique in its eclectic mix of intelligent science fiction, world politics, innovative design, and hardcore punk aesthetic. You will be changed after reading it." - Farel Dalrymple

“[THE SOLAR GRID] could not have arrived at a more nerve-wrackingly appropriate time.” - Strange Horizons

“Gorgeous political science fiction comics for grown-ups.” - Saladin Ahmed

“It’s a story about the inevitable destruction of our planet by corporate greed and a couple of unassuming antiheroes who somehow bring it all down. This is a story of revolution, the powerless taking power back from the powerful.” - Slate

"Big, complex, eccentric, with some marvelous stylistic choices and some serious intelligence." - Warren Ellis

"Intoxicating, ambitious read." - Flickering Myth

“Protest on a flooded planet, cyborg kids scavenging a ruined Earth, a billionaire technocrat desperate to alter the world to suit his vision. With vibrant and distinct art for each of these linked stories, THE SOLAR GRID is an exhilarating and important slab of sci-fi comix.” - Corey Jae White

“Ganzeer’s project epitomizes his hyper-democratic ethos.” - Foreign Policy

"Absolutely brilliant. A glimpse into what would become of Earth were racist settler-colonial technophile powers allowed to endure.” - Dominic Boyer
