YOU GUYS! Remember when
I told you about Black Science, Rick Remender's new weird science-horror comic? Well I picked up the first issue last week and it's awesome! It has everything you could want in a scifi pulp adventure. Here's a few quick snaps from my phone (sorry if the quality isn't great when enlarged):
Primitive fish folk riding land eels!
Ancient temples spewing eldritch energies!
Frog gods and the evil bullywugs who worship them!
Who hasn't mistakenly stumbled into a bullywug shaman lair and made a few new friends, am I right?
These are some of the wonderful splash pages from the book. The cover art by Matteo Scalera and Dean White is--to my eyes--evocative of those old pulp fantasy novels from the 70s. And there's more here to help fuel your RPG game:
- Cosmic Cthuluesque horror!
- Tragic consequences for practicing forbidden science!
- Hero loses initiative roll at least twice!
- Creative problem solving to get out of--not one, but two--jams!
- Dimension hopping gone awry not once, but twice!
Note: Black Science is rated "Mature".
But no nudity?
ReplyDeleteI must own this comic. Thanks so much for sharing it!
ReplyDelete@Aaron, there's a topless fish lady, if you're into that sort of thing. ;)
ReplyDelete@Charles, of course! Too good not to share!
