In the year 2076, the fate of humanity rests in the hands of 21 young warriors known as The Love Punks and The Satellite Sisters.
Follow them as they blast off from Australia’s Pilbara desert to the far reaches of space on a mission to protect the world from an angry sky god.
Neomad is a fictional fantasy based on real characters, places and stories that connect the people to their country and aims to bring attention to the rich Indigenous cultural resources of the Pilbara in Western Australia, equally as rich as the vast mineral resources of the area. As part of the Yijala Yala Project, a group of 30 young people from the Ieramugadu (Roebourne) in the Pilbara have been collaborating with Sutu, creator of the multi-award winning NAWLZ interactive comic series.
Fun comic created from a cool program working with young Indigenous people from Roebourne in the Pilbarra region of Western Australia. Really lovely to see the creativity and embrace of culture throughout the text and knowing how it encouraged these young kids to imagine our world in a different way makes me love it more. Used it as an example of Indigenous science fiction in my year 9 English class and they loved it - some even decided to use it as inspiration to create their own graphic novel for our class project!
