Dark Horse - Dollhouse: Epitaphs #1

Dark Horse releases Dollhouse Epitaphs #1. For fans of the Dollhouse series from FOX, this comic is a must have. It allows us to dive further into the story of the how Rossum Corporation's mind wiping technology has impacted the world. Originally the technology was used at Dollhouses across the world. Quick side note for those unfamiliar with the series, a Dollhouse was a place that provided wealthy patrons with beautiful men and women, called 'dolls', that could perform any type of service requested. Dolls were imprinted with the skills or personalities the wealthy patrons requested. After the 'doll' has completed their task, their memory was wiped clean. Dollhouses were in all major cities.

Writers Andrew Chambliss, Maurissa Tancharoen and Jed Whedon show us the impact of the Rossum Corporation's Dollhouse technology after it has hit the masses. It turns people into mindless killers. A rogue 'doll', Alpha, is trying to lead a resistance against the Rossum Corporation and recruits a young boy Trevor to help.

The Dollhouse Epitaphs #1 is available Wednesday.
