Just as Tazzik, an agent of the Shadow Broker wants to turn over the corpse to the Collectors, Liara manages to capture it, with the help of the drell Feron, who is captured in the process, and turn it over to Cerberus, hoping that they may be able to revive Shepard.

Both the Shadow Broker (working for the Collectors) and Liara T'Soni (helping Cerberus) are to find and retrieve the dead body of Commander Shepard. The narrative in Redemption begins with Commander Shepard mysteriously disappearing in the Terminus Systems, out of contact with the SSV Normandy and its crew. According to Mac Walters, the comic mini-series will be 'expanding on characters that we didn't really explore in Mass Effect and also looking at opportunities to expand on them even further in the DLC.' The events of Mass Effect: Redemption will tie-in to downloadable content that will be produced for Mass Effect 2. The comic will be published by Dark Horse Comics and is written by Mac Walters, who was a lead writer for Mass Effect, with scripting by John Jackson Miller and art by Omar Francia, both of whom have previously worked on Star Wars-related comics. It will be a four-issue mini-series based on the Mass Effect video games. Mass Effect: Redemption was revealed on July 21, 2009.
