Powerful, intelligent, ruthless... Servalan as a child, learning early about power and how to get it...Avon as a young man, finding ways to beat the system... Two sides of a coin, two lives on a collision course...
The events on the Liberator are only a part of their story. Now it’s time to find out how it started and how it ends. Lucifer: Genesis is a compelling and vivid reimagining of Avon’s life, starting long before the events of the TV series, following his journey from the Liberator to the Scorpio, and leading us into the bleak future of the post-Federation world.
