SCI-FI COMIC NEXUS

We all like to think we're special in one way or another. Desmond Jones (a.k.a. DJ) certainly qualifies, having come from poverty to working with a new mentoring program for young people in his neighbourhood. He's a humble guy, though, he doesn't really think of himself as being all that significant... So it is a bit of a shock when a strangely-dressed woman from another galaxy attacks him with a glowing sword because he is, in fact, actual royalty. The shock of such a sudden revelation somewhat eclipsed by the simultaneous threat of impending death, DJ has precisely zero time to process such a life-changing newsflash. All is not lost, however, as a team of valiant protectors appear just as suddenly and engage the aforementioned assassin in combat. Cue much in the way of combat and advanced technological weapons and gadgets as our poor unwitting hero tries to stay alive in the crossfire. Galaxy Heirs by writer Rubyn Warren II and artist Ronilson Freire is an all-guns-blaz...

  "So I can't value life because of my synthetic biology? Life is only valuable to organics? To truly live is to be able to die? I've seen fridges die that serve more purpose than some of these scumbags." Detectives waxing philosophical is nothing new in the pulp-noir genre, but this is a little different. Zander is a robot police detective in the city Starburn on an exotic planet with pink skies and a diverse human and alien population. The cyberpunk backdrop - sleazy neon ads illuminating warrens of dark alleyways, dive bars, disreputable virtual reality joints, flying cars, etc. - is the setting for a mystery involving the murder of a politician. Who killed the ex-mayor, and why? Starburn by writer/artist Coleton Mastick is a thriller with a twist. The police department are keen to wrap up the case as quickly as possible because the independence of the city depends upon its resolution. Anyone they can pin the blame on will do, and the city has no shortage of chara...

The human race is extinct. A variety of alien and robotic races inhabit the galaxy. On the planet Vesper 59-34c Synessa, an android sex worker, is visited by a mysterious stranger. Humanoid, metallic, his face a mask, he calls himself Argos (a.k.a. the Starflayer). He insists on liberating her from her life of servitude to the alien 'Elves' because she has a higher purpose: "Come with me. Together we will restart the human race." Starflayer by writer Ivan Wyrsta and artist Emman Mariaregue is a dazzling action adventure in which our two protagonists journey to a variety of exotic worlds in search of the Construer, a being who has the power to establish a new population of humans. To locate the Construer, they must assemble a set of cypher keys which are distributed across several planets. Sourcing these keys turns out to be something of a challenge, however. The dominant alien race, Salurians, are hostile and present an obstacle in the form of armoured sentries. Argo...

It's a hot, sunny day on the Moon and Tamika is at the beach, topping up her tan. Straylight Beach is in Honeycomb Bay, a dome that simulates the environment of Earth (before it became toxic), including a 400 cubic mile man-made ocean surrounded by beaches amusement parks and several downtown shopping districts.  Tamika 'Trouble' Kennedy is a young ex-military private investigator with finely-honed combat skills and experimental nanotechnology implanted into her body. Her relaxing plans to spend the day sunbathing followed by cocktails with a girlfriend are scuppered when she receives a call from the defence force Solcorps: A robbery is in progress and they need her help. Telling the muscular android waiter to hold her mojito, she leaps into the fray... Trouble by writer Phoebe Xavier and artist Cheunchin Bunnag is a fun romp with wonderfully over-the-top sexy, high-tech characters battling it out in an exotic lunar Utopia. The action is non-stop and the tone is light and...

Jacob dreams of a fantasy world that nobody currently alive has ever seen. It contains the most wonderful, impossible things: grass, trees, flowers... Such things used to exist, on the surface, but that was over a century ago, before the accident in the early 21st century that destroyed Earth's ecosystem. An experiment with a particle accelerator to explore the possibilities of 'Higgs fission' and create a new way to harvest energy resulted in the emergence of a cluster of microscopic black holes. They evaporated within seconds, but that was all the time it took to fatally damage the planet's atmosphere and make life unviable. People retreated to underground bunkers, eventually creating a whole new world deep within the protective bedrock.  Society survives and thrives with the aid of Djinn, an A.I. that regulates every automated function. He appears on screens as a faceless entity turned away from the viewer, but his voice is a constant, reassuring balm to the subterra...

Famed since ancient times, the 'Morning Star' is an object of awe and wonder. Earth's twin planet, very close in size and mass, and consequently with a very similar gravity, the second planet from the Sun is named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty. And it may look beautiful from a safe distance, but on a closer inspection the harsh reality is much less alluring... Venus has a thick atmosphere of mostly carbon dioxide, creating a runaway greenhouse effect that creates a surface temperature of ove r 800° Celsius. Add to that an atmosphere 90 times that of sea level on Earth plus sulphuric acid rain... it starts to resemble hell rather than paradise, and the irony of the name 'Morning Star' - associated with a certain fallen angel by the name of Lucifer the 'light bringer' - becomes uncomfortably appropriate. You would have to be pretty darn desperate - some may say insane - to try and colonise such a savagely inhospitable environment, would you not? ...

Two worlds move as one Through the light of golden suns A marriage made in eternity Gave birth to our harmony Two as one we seek the same Two as one we must remain Let no evil put asunder This union of cosmic wonder The Mega Centarri cluster is a system of eighty-eight inhabited planets and moons embedded in the Milky Way galaxy, ruled over by the mysterious High Council of the Twelve. The inhabitants of the cluster have lived in harmonious peace for millenia... until now. On Central Planet, two lovers are plagued by recurring nightmares. In their dreams they are fighting in a war on the planet Zederth on the outer edge of the cluster. People are pitted against monstrous beings resembling ferocious demons, led by an ominous creature made of rock and flame.  Prin Merkanteel is a brilliant scientist, musician and composer. His partner Priz Em is a poet and vocalist of extraordinary talents. Hailed as living embodiments of the sacred ideals of music and love, they are elevated to godl...

When 99% of humankind is wiped out by a pandemic, four billion people are “saved” by being digitized at the brink of death and uploaded into Arcadia, a utopian simulation in the cloud. But when Arcadia begins to rapidly deplete the energy resources upon which the handful of survivors in the real world (aka “The Meat”) depends, how long will The Meat be able - and willing - to help? Lee Pepper works at the Arcadia Base Station 1 in Alaska, housing a billion of the people who died when the outbreak hit. When President Melina Gomez pays a visit he escorts her into the simulation to negotiate with its leader, Secretary-General Leandro Binetti. Arcadia contains the vast majority of human minds on the planet, including many medical geniuses. Any hope for developing a cure to the virus that is decimating the flesh and blood survivors in the outside world resides with these uploaded specialists. So far, the magic bullet has not been forthcoming. Meanwhile, the Arcadia servers have been drawing...

" Are you afraid that you'll find monsters on your new planet?" "Naw, mister. If there are monsters, Pop and me'll just shoot 'em." "Oh? What if you're the monsters?" Fifty astronomical units from the Sun, the United Space Group starship Westward is ready to make the jump to 'Escherspace'; a detour from normal four-dimensional spacetime which allows faster-than-light travel across the galaxy. On board are crew, colonists and  journalist  Lamont Townsend. This will be the first manned expedition to a new world outside Earth's solar system, to establish a settlement on a distant planet capable of supporting life. So far, so generic... except that the year is 1999 and the pilot is a nine-foot tall Martian who was brought back from the red planet in the year 1985 by astronaut Francis Carter, now captain of the Westward . This is the final frontier, but not as we know it. The USG is keen to begin colonising new worlds. Fifty years p...
