Thought Bubble Debut: Killtopia by Dave Cook and Craig Paton
Killtopia is a comic series that sees a rookie salvage hunter and his robot sidekick hunted by crazed android killers across future Japan. Created by Dave Cook and Craig Paton, and successfully funded on Kickstarter, it will debut at Thought Bubble in Leeds on the 22nd and 23rd of September. It will then be released in comic stores in the UK in October from BHP Comics.
Killtopia is a cyberpunk comic series set in a mega-city in future Japan. The city's Sector K district is infested with killer mechs. Heavily-armed soldiers of fortune called Wreckers are paid to hunt them for money, fame and glory.
Our story starts as a rookie Wrecker called Shinji encounters the world's first sentient mech called Crash. They are then both hunted like fugitives across the neon-soaked metropolis by Wreckers, android killers and Yakuza gangs in a violent battle royale to end them all!
The series has been created from a love of Japanese culture, dystopian fiction and the work of Japan's finest videogame developers – all qualified and culture-checked by family members and friends living in Japan.
You can take a look at some of the imagery – including guest prints by Gary Erskine and Darick Robertson, below.
