Alethia Chapter 1

I bought this from the artist at the Shanghai Comic Con in 2017.

Title: Alethia
Issue: Chapter 1
Date: 2016
Publisher: Kristina Stipetic
Writer: Kristina Stipetic
Artist: Kristina Stipetic

Full-color squarebound minicomic. On a world of robots who live in a society modeled after the social insects, the populace awaits the laying of a new queen egg, as the aging and exhausted Queen produces only more workers.|

When a strange robot falls from the sky, some of the workers see her as a possible replacement for the Queen. But the stranger's arrival has inspired the Queen to an act of rebellion of her own.

The design and worldbuilding were excellent here, and the story, while just getting started, was intriguing. This is a great beginning, and I hope to check out more of this series.

Rating: 8.5/10
