Josh's Indie Comic Grab Bag: Black Project, Seasons, Oasis, and Champions of Earth

Welcome to the first installment of Josh's Indie Comic Grab Bag. These are the indie projects that I haven't yet gotten around to reviewing for any number of reasons. I may visit one or more of them later, but I want to give them a spotlight in the interim. Today, we'll be looking at Black Project, Seasons, Champions of Earth, and Oasis. Enjoy, and check these books out if any tickle your fancy:

Black Project is an ongoing sci-fi horror comic by Bulent Hassan and Josh Whittall. A meteorite lands on Earth in a remote area. A retrieval team arrives only to be attacked by the object. Years later, we meet Jack, a seemingly normal teenager who deals with bullies and grapples with hormones. However, he soon discovers he may not be so normal, and powers manifest. He is soon pursued by mysterious men. How is Jack connected to the meteorite? What is Jack?

Books 1 and 2 of Black Project are both available on Amazon for your purchasing pleasure.

Nandor Fox Shaffer and Anthony Gonzalez-Clark bring you Seasons, an ongoing digital comic about one year in the life of protagonist Fletcher Hart Liams. He begins brushing up against supernatural entities called "shadow-selves" which complicate his life beyond measure. Fletcher himself discovers that he also has supernatural abilities that change with the seasons. It is a story of struggle, self-discovery, and, above all else, Seasons.

The first volume of Seasons, appropriately called Spring, is available on Amazon in a hardcover collection. The digital comic itself is currently being published on the official website. Seasons has also been prasied by both Brian Michael Bendis and Jason Brubaker for its art and storytelling acumen.

Champions of Earth, by Alexander Banchitta, James Riccardo, and Koko Amboro, is a superhero tale unlike most superhero tales. It focuses on the Scarab and Jupiter Man, a new pair of young heroes who are currently the apple of the media's eye. They are brash and eager and come on the coattails of the previous pair of heroes who were arrested for a crime spree. However, all may not be as it seems, and these Champions of Earth may be hiding more than just their real names.

Champions of Earth #1 is available on ComiXology should you be interested in this title.

Oasis is a dystopian cyberpunk drama by Alex Wills and Breno Girafa. It takes place in a futuristic Los Angeles wherein a group of orphans are brought together by a woman named Miranda. Miranda wants to bring down the rich and powerful of the world, and she recruits these orphans to help her bring it all down. Family bonding and cyber-anarchism are on the menu with Oasis.

Oasis is available on their official site, and the first eight issues can be purchased on ComiXology.

And that wraps up this first Indie Comic Grab Bag. I hope you found something worth checking out, and always remember to support the indies when you can.
