dystopia

[sprocketuk]

So my fave comics arent superhero things, I have always been into dystopia. I guess that all started when I was a kid and started reading 2000AD full of stories about Judge Dredd MegaCity1 and the cursed earth, Flesh...about futuristic cowboys who went back to wrangle dinosaurs for food production. Invasion about a race called the Volgons, who wore russian helmets and sounded russian, invading the UK and Nuking the big cities. Rogue trooper about a genetically modified super soldier fighting through a planetary wasteland in some never ending apocalyptic war  and tons of others.

Recently trhough I stumbled across something newer that reminded me so much of the best of the old Dredd stories. Transmetropolitan its about a sort of gonzo journalist trying to fight back against the corrupt elites keeping the people down in this futuristic, cyberpunky sort of city. Its free now if you have kindle unlimited, give it a go.
