A Mandalorian bounty hunter takes several jobs tracking down all manner of folks who need to be recovered. Some are bail jumpers, some are criminals, others just have prices on their heads. He doesn’t ask many questions, just takes the tracking fobs and works the job. His latest job takes him to Arvala 7 and involves remnants of the Empire, but the payout is Beskar, a sacred metal to the Mandalorian people. Once on Arvala 7, he discovers he's not the only bounty hunter working the job, and the pick up is not going to be as easy as he initially thought.
The Earth has been destroyed by nuclear war and something generations ago called The Great Fire. The remnants of human society have banded together to form Camp New Hope, and the survivors fight against radioactive creatures they refer to as Haedra. During one of these skirmishes, Diana is awoken from a machine where she has slumbered for centuries. She finds no familiar faces, just familiar skeletons of her fallen comrades. As she pieces together the nature of the disaster, she decides humanity’s best hope may be in venturing to Themyscira, which surely survived the nuclear war.
Vol 9: Artemis
In this volume of O’Connor’s series, we learn of Artemis’s life, from the moment she is conceived to several famous stories in Greek mythology. Zeus seduced the Greek maiden Leto, who bore twins Artemis and Apollo. As Hera was filled with jealousy, Leto’s childbirth was not easy. When Artemis first meets her celestial father, she asks him specifically for many things, including nymphs to be her attendants, wild lands filled with animals to hunt, and to never have to marry or know the touch of a man. In this way, Artemis became the maiden goddess of the wild hunt, and is also a goddess over difficult childbirth. Several other stories are presented, including Artemis and Niobe and Artemis and Orion. 
Ezrest is still covered and plagued by the Valance Leech. The Knights Moralis are becoming wearied from the constant fighting, and we delve into the backstory of Knight Utowin. Then, inspiration strikes, and Coco comes up with a brilliant idea for battling the Leech involving a large swath of witches, some of the contraptions from the Silver Eve parade, and a lot of seals. But Knight Easthies is supremely against the plan based on his deeply held convictions and the rules that govern all witch-kind.
