Welcome to 2054. For 99% of the 9.9 billion, climate change, forced migration, workforce automation, failing infrastructure, and overburdened social services make for a harsh day-to-day existence. Instead people find their refuge in the HYPER SCAPE: a one-of-a-kind virtual landscape run by the world’s greatest megacorp, Prisma Dimensions. It is used to access games, shopping, social communities, interactive experiences, and more.

The HYPER SCAPE is the newest frontier, a virtual gold rush of a new age…

Currently free to buy on Amazon, Hyper scape has finally returned. It is strange reading a tie-in to a computer game that I haven't played yet but it is enjoyable. These comics might be short but the story moves along quickly and seamlessly. 3 stars

Neuromantic.

Author freebie. Long anticipated. Good color artwork. Hyperscape is a cybernetic playland that everyone wants to hack. It features a mad computer and a mad business owner as well . I could wish the issues were 32 pages and arrived a little more frequently.
