Minotaur #2 has interesting concepts but doesn’t quite nail down its potential

Posted on by Leave a comment

Photojournalist Gloria Monday’s mission to investigate outbreaks of the future continues!

An encounter unlocks clues about the “weretiger” terrorizing a local Indian population; and truth-seeking takes a personal turn when Monday’s search for answers about the Singularity event uncovers a life-changing (and possibly Earth-shattering) revelation.

Meanwhile, money man Raf Romero proves he’s more than just the bankroller when he shares shreds of his origin story and fresh new intell.

Government agents Koch and Bull’s scorched Earth pursuit of the team heats up, and all the new leads in the world won’t help Monday crack the case if this cat-and-mouse game continues.

Minotaur #1 shows off potential but honestly, we’re not sure what to think yet

Posted on by

Five years ago, a government supercomputer triggered the Singularity: an explosion of technological superintelligence heralding an unimaginable tomorrow. At least, it almost did. Within moments, a failsafe activated. The plug was pulled. The future was aborted. But something leaked in those first picoseconds, through wire and wave. And now? The future fights back. Inexplicable events. Miracles and monsters. Harbingers of revolution…or apocalypse?

Minotaur is the tale of Gloria Monday, a photojournalist documenting the lives of those, like her, who are haunted, tortured, and transformed by outbreaks of the future; along with the no-nonsense ex-military muscle who watches her six, and the reformed tech bro secretly bankrolling their global mission to expose it all.
