Megalith: The Olympus Saga #3 wraps things up with a clunker of an issue that feels like a preview

Posted on by Leave a comment

War has come to Earth – a battle that has raged for millennia, stretching across galaxies, leaving only death and destruction in its wake. One man stands between Earth and annihilation. Bound to the deep space megalith he once sought to destroy, Baltimore beat cop Jack Casey must pilot the massive mecha-robot it has become if Earth has a prayer of surviving the incoming assault. Because a massive, 100-story alien predator has breached Earth’s atmosphere, careening towards the heart of Baltimore. Its mission? To claim a tactical victory in this universal war by conquering the planet.

Megalith: The Olympus Saga #2 lays its cards on the table revealing a disappointing hand

Posted on by

CODENAME OLYMPUS is on the move! The deep space mecha-robot that razed half of Baltimore marches towards Washington, DC leaving death and destruction in its wake. Nuclear-armed fighter jets stand by, awaiting instructions to take out Olympus…and what’s left of the city. Locked inside the towering megalith, Baltimore beat cop Jack Casey and the last survivors of an elite government breach team are all that stand between the city and nuclear annihilation. Facing down savage, otherworldly predators and a brutal barrage of deadly tests, the team must scale miles of harsh terrain in a hostile alien world to reach the head, and destroy Olympus from the inside. With minutes before launch and countless lives on the line, the clock is ticking. Because Olympus is only the beginning–and a second, far larger monolith is hurtling towards Earth.

Megalith: The Olympus Saga #1 delivers popcorn disaster entertainment

Posted on by

Twenty minutes ago, a massive monolith crashed into the heart of Baltimore, obliterating 16 square blocks. No one knows where it came from or why. Somehow, the monstrous deep space object evaded the global surveillance net. Three elite breach teams were dispatched to penetrate its outer shell and disable it. Ten minutes ago, it sprouted tendrils that began ripping apart nearby streets, cars and even people using the raw material to print itself larger. Police, SWAT, the Feds, even NORAD were powerless to stop it. Just two minutes ago, the megalithic anomaly achieved its final form — a gigantic, hundred-story tall, humanoid, mecha-robot — then began marching towards Washington, DC. Now, our only hope is Officer Jack Casey, a beat cop scarred by the past, who along with what remains of the breach teams must scale the robot from the inside. If they can reach the head, they can destroy it, but time is running out. The government has scrambled a nuclear response and the world has just learned that a second, bigger monolith is about to impact Earth.
