57 Years ago there was a ‘Robot Apocalypse’ which left humanity devastated. The descendants of the survivors strive to live in a post apocalyptic wasteland filled with the rusted remains of the robots, while pushing to rebuild humanity. Finding people these days is rare, but solo survivor Chris Swift soon discovered there was a lot more of humanity left than he originally thought.
The story so far...
Finding survivors these days is rare, or so Chris Swift thought. After meeting Sofia Rodriguez, and surviving an encounter with a mecha, he has been introduced to the large community of humans and robots of 'Home".
Chris learned about the history of the robots, their creation and the apocalypse from Mayor Olivia Carter. She is a descendant of the geniuses that helped conceive the threat that went on to destroy most of humanity.
Olivia also told him her aspiration to reclaim the mighty 'Taiyou' Stone, which helped to power the robots. It was lost alongside her father and many others, but Nicki Rodriguez and Scout have just returned 'Home' with the last location of the missing, as well as bringing back an unusual guest... mILK wITH a cHAINSAW.
Set 57 years after a mysterious Robot invasion that resulted in the end of the world as we know it. Most of the population of the world has been wiped out, everything has changed but how do those left behind survive…We pick up after the events of issue 1 and learn a great deal more about the world and those that are left after the robot….apocalypse..
Thoughts….
What a great third issue, this really kicks things up a notch. With the first two issues getting the set up and the characters established it really gives this issue the chance to flex its action muscles. This issue gives us that in spades, after a brief mission brief we get thrown into a full on action packed, guns blazing, chainsaw buzzing adventure.
We do get a fair bit more information about the world and how things have got to where they are, and see a bit more the world around Home. The story we are getting here is really great, some interesting origin points are explored here all leading to more questions. But those questions will have to wait until the dust settles as we are soon thrown into a melee of explosive consequence.
As always the artwork throughout is spot on, definitely a very unique style and approach but so awesome. The design work for the characters, especially the less human ones, is great, who wouldn’t want a milk carton with a chainsaw on their side in a fire fight…
This issue is awesome, it really cranks everything up to 1000 by the end, there is definitely a sense of danger for the characters here as you just don’t know who will come out the other side and to say the issue ends on a cliffhanger…well you will see when you get to read it. Another great offering from Keith both from the writing side and the art, an easy 8 out 10 for me, go pledge while the kickstarter is still going as there is still time…
