Review: Meta6

 



Meta6 is the creation of young Nigerian artist/author Harrison Prime of Cosmic Land Studios, available on Amazon Kindle and Comixology (Issues 1 & 2 out now). Set in Lagos, 2037, our story concerns 'Spectre', a kick-ass, bad-ass feisty female, sporting guns and swords and battling evil homicidal cyborgs on the streets and rooftops of the glittering dystopian African city.

A shadowy organisation is abducting people and turning them into killing machines for a private army. The authorities seem to be turning a blind eye to their activities, and so must be involved in the conspiracy. 

Spectre is looking for her brother who is one of the victims, and has no choice but to wage a one-woman war against the perpetrators. She certainly has the qualities: finely-honed combat skills and a fearless determination to get to the truth.

Luckily she soon gains allies; the mysterious powerful blue humanoid Worgan and the recently converted cyborg Damilola who has managed to hold onto the memory of being human.

The artwork is bright and polished, the futuristic city rendered in glowing, dream-like colours. The figures are vital, constantly in motion as they battle from page to page. It's an energetic, high-tech thrill ride with a momentum that doesn't let up for a heartbeat. Meta6 is a very satisfying slice of sci-fi action drama. 

Probably Africa is not the first continent most people would think of as a good source of comic art talent, which makes this one particularly special. In today's ultra-tech, hyper-connected world, anyone anywhere with skill and passion can share their work and everyone can enjoy it. I'm very happy to see that happening and it gives me high hopes for the future.

Review: Toxx

Image
 Cover art:  Adrien Bonilla @adrianBcomics   What does it mean to be human in a world that left humanity behind long ago? Claire is pregnant, and there are complications: the Earth is a radioactive dystopia filled with ferocious mutations and everyone else on the planet is sterile. The tiny miracle inside her has made her a target... Thirty years previously the ozone layer failed and solar radiation flooded the world, killing most living things and transforming the rest into horrific monsters. Worse, fending off the hungry wildlife is only delaying the inevitable; eventually everyone succumbs to the destabilising effects of radiation poisoning. Our heroine lives in an underground town where she works as part of a team called the Relic and Toxx Scavengers (R.A.T.S) who make hazardous visits to the surface to forage for essential supplies. Once her condition is discovered, however, Claire herself becomes an invaluable commodity to be traded... TOXX by writers Evan Carothers and Eric Pal
