NYC Mech: Beta Love

    (Image, 2005–2007)
™ and © 2005 Ivan Brandon, Miles Gunter, & Andy MacDonald

This preview issue from Ivan Brandon, Miles Gunter and Andy MacDonald presents a mechanized New York City inhabited by robots fashioned in diverse, recognizably ethnic human forms going about their daily business—some of which is mundane, and some of which is downright criminal.

Accented with style cues borrowed from hip-hop, NYC Mech concocts a compelling new blend of science fiction, crime, and slice-of-life comics storytelling. This preview dives in to a brave new world without pausing to explain its genesis; tight writing and dynamic illustration make for a satisfying immersion. This full-color preview includes characters from the actual run of the series in two unique short stories.
