Bug! The Adventures of Forager #1 (July, 2017) |
Forager was a New God of New Genesis raised by the Bugs.
history
The New God who would come to be known as Forager, at a identical young old age had somehow come into the worry of the Bugs, a race of android insects that thrive in the colonies of New Genesis. When Forager reached adolescence, he was told of his true lineage by his adopted father, Prime One, who besides told Forager to seek out Orion. Although initially treated with contempt, peculiarly by Orion, due to the New Gods ‘ prejudice towards Bugs, Forager proved himself a worthy ally against the forces of Darkseid. Forager sacrificed himself, saving land from the physical embodiment of the Anti-Life Equation.
resurrection
forager awakens in a cocoon and breaks out, lone to apparently find himself in a home basement on earth. He recalls Metron saying he was n’t actually all in, but in a abeyant department of state. Forager spots a teddy hold laying on a cupboard and hears it spill. A short “ ghost girlfriend ” takes the bear and climbs the stairs. Forager follows the female child entirely to be confronted by monsters who keep referring to him as “ the sleeper. ” He fends off the creatures and stumbles upon a room where the ghost daughter is lining up dominoes in a pattern identical to that of a Mother Box circuitry power system, a lot to Forager ‘s confusion. The chemise bear asks Forager whether he will go back to New Genesis to rejoin either the New Gods or the Bugs. Forager says no ; he has no intention of participating any far in High Father ‘s war with Darkseid or going back to the Bugs just to “ work ’til he dies. ” The teddy yield then asks Forager if he plans to go back to saving the universe, to which he besides says no, he would much preferably explore it. The bear then suggests that Forager is not sincerely “ rebelling ” due to his decisions being expected. Forager touches one of the dominoes, which causes him to experience a sight of assorted people. He then topples the dominoes, causing some kind of chain reaction. Frightened, Forager calls out to the touch female child to make it stop, only to realize he is entirely. Forager is then attacked by two more creatures, who he defeats well. He is then attacked by a costumed man. once Forager unwittingly reveals himself as the sleeper, the man tells him that he intends to save him. The man introduces himself as Sandman and the two creatures as his helpers, Brute and Glob and tells Forager that it is their responsibility to police the Dreaming. Sandman besides tells him that he is not in the real world, but a dream. He tries waking Forager by saying his name, but when that fails, he suggests saying his nickname, “ Bug. ” It works and Forager reemerges from his cocoon in the waking world, and finds that his new acquaintances are there with him. The group is attacked by lizard-men, who they well kill. Sandman reveals that he and his helpers can exist in the real universe thanks to a whistle made of the reality warping metallic, orichalcum. They then encounter the Nazi huffy scientist, General Electric, who renders them unconscious with his own orichalcum whistle and takes Sandman ‘s. forager and his allies regain awareness in a giant bottle within General Electric ‘s lab. As Electric is gloating, Forager breaks the bottle candid. He takes one of the whistles, and then by chance steps into a apparently random dimensional portal site.
