We Promised Utopia is a sci-fi epic centered around charismatic idealist Isabel Bari and her development of the Equivalent Carbon Credit (ECC) which ties every element of the global economy to a carbon-based currency. The comic focuses on three separate eras of humanity: the rise of the ECC in present day, a utopian future, and a distant dystopia.
Isa deflects questions about the mysterious Ygdrassil project while an approaching hurricane is threatening the lives of a Save The World contestant and his fellow villagers. Mangus delves deeper into governmental corruption and a family goes to extreme lengths to survive the global ice age.
