As a society, we love theorizing about what could happen in the future. Whether we’re trying to be realistic or just imagine whatever looks the coolest doesn’t matter. The Blade Runner science-fiction franchise, which began in 1968 with Philip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? jumpstarted some very imaginative views of a future world. They eventually led to various films, novels, and comics, among other works of media. What comes next is Blade Runner: Black Lotus, and we finally have a trailer to help us get excited.
