Anomaly: The Rubicon, with Prints

by Skip Brittenham (Creator)

AUGMENTED REALITY GRAPHIC NOVEL
(For Apple and Android devices) In a post-Earth future, humanity is strewn across the galaxy, living in city-sized orbital platforms or on distant colony worlds. All aspects of society--economic, military, judicial, media --are controlled by a single the Conglomerate . Wealth is the only measure of status and power, and the vast majority of it is held by a select few shareholders. For centuries, citizens of the Conglomerate have never known any other way of life, yet some still dream of justice and freedom. In this sequel to the ground-breaking graphic novel ANOMALY , the survivors of a doomed exploratory mission will challenge the very system that sent them off to die. Captained by Jon , a veteran soldier seeking redemption from his past, and inspired by Samantha , a wealthy elite shareholder who yearns for a more just society, they are determined to expose the dark secrets that keep the Conglomerate in power. They will take their stand at a place called the Rubicon . The Rubicon is a planet-wide display of power, wealth and military might. A showy and decadent high-tech carnival where the latest killing machines are paraded before the public and where citizens are entertained by gruesome blood sports. It is the ultimate show of strength for a government that believes itself to be invulnerable. Yet there are cracks in the foundation of their authority. Jon and his crew hope to expose disturbing truths about covert Conglomerate operations to a galaxy-wide audience, and show that the system might be vulnerable after all. And they have a most unusual card up their a mysterious substance called "ooze" that can potentially neutralize the very technology the Conglomerate relies on for its domination. Joined by a number of unlikely allies, they will strike a blow for freedom or die trying. Lavishly illustrated and richly detailed, THE RUBICON is an epic sci-fi adventure as imagined by Skip Brittenham (Between Worlds, Anomaly, Shifter) and Brian Haberlin (Witchblade, Aria, Spawn, Faster Than Light). The Revolution starts now.
