Tellurion a visual story by Matt Rhodes, Concept artist for Bioware and Dragon Age

I have been following Matt Rhodes Art for a long time and his no dialogue Comic Series Telluion. It is now available on Amazon and Itasca Books as an art book.
In this entirely visual story, an orphan Boy is betrayed by his friends and captured during an attempt to steal food. The orphan is rescued by a Robotic wanderer and tags along on his mysterious quest: the search for a missing sword blade. As they travel the world, we see many clues revealing that the blade was the corner stone of a once-great civilization.
Along the way they rescue a mysterious Girl, a map maker who knows where they can look for the blade next. They travel the world together, meeting new and interesting characters, overcoming challenges, growing and learning about themselves.
They cross paths with a Tyrant who also seeks the blade for his own purposes. After a daring escape from his prison, the Girl reveals that their quest must take them under the world, and to get there, they have to sneak onto the moon...
This is one example of a 3 year in the making of a storybook and new world. The book will be the full story of Tellurion and I have been seeing snippet of this world through his artstation.
He has been sharing his artworks on both Artstation and Instagram. Which I think is a good way to see if there is an audience for this kind of art.
This is a way to de-risk a new world IP Project which i would Like to attempt besides making games.
