Welcome to Olissipo City – a shimmering metropolis where technology rules with a heavy hand, cyborg strike teams are commonplace, and the lines between man and machine grow hazier every day. From artist/writer André Lima Araújo comes this high-octane dystopian thriller that whisks the reader into the thick of a robotic skirmish and the unsettling conspiracy that lies at its heart…

Mixing elements of cyber-punk, noir, and a few other elements, this comic should please anyone who is a fan of futuristic sci-fi. While it may not be traditional noir style comics, since it lacks the dark atmosphere, there is a clear influence by it. There is obviously a lot yet to be revealed about this corporate ruled world but, the issue still manages to be a thrill ride.

The art is almost as well done as the story. Compared to most traditional cyber-punk worlds, it has a much brighter atmosphere.  I will admit despite the availability of cybernetic implants the characters still look and feel human, in appearance. That contributes to the world, and the story extremely well. I’m curious to see how the characters stay grounded in a world, that is slowly becoming less and less human.

Definitely a creator and series to keep your eye on.
