Spies, Robots And Revenge: Image Comics Announces ‘We’re Taking Everyone Down With Us’
by Olly MacNamee
We’re Taking Everyone Down With Us is a new series by regular collaborators writer Matthew Rosenberg and artist Stefano Landini coming from Image Comics in March, 2025. The first issue in this genre-mashing will be an extra-length issue, which Rosenberg describes as “a fun story about our favorite things—super-spies, mad scientists, robots, family, and revenge.”
“We’re Taking Everyone Down With Us, follows 13-year-old Annalise who’s left all alone in the world after her mad-scientist father is killed by the world’s greatest spy. Now, alongside her dead dad’s robot bodyguard, Annalise has a choice: try to lead a normal life for the first time ever…or seek revenge and maybe overthrow the world order in the process.
This exciting new story takes readers on an unparalleled journey of super spies and pseudoscience, growing up and global domination, and regret and retribution.””
Rosenberg also states:
“What we ended up making somehow became much funnier, more heartfelt, and far weirder than what we set out to do.”
Landini added:
“I started from what I am passionate about, and therefore from design and pop culture, trying to unite them in giving a graphic form to a story that sees a father and a daughter as protagonists. The story is an adventure that in some ways recalls the James Bond of the ’70s, a Tokusatsu, but which is set in an imaginary world in which humanity coexists with robots, exoskeletons and futuristic weapons. I think that We’re Taking Everyone Down With Us summarizes all this and much more. I am really excited at the idea that, after so much time, readers will finally be able to read it. I can’t wait to discover their opinions.“
