Scavenged World

Comic Unknown's Treasured Story

Welcome to Arin, a planet with great industrialization that brought desolation to itself. Now it is considered a wasteland where only a small portion of the population were chosen to start a new life in a colony within the it's orbit. The king of the colony only wanted the best of the best to follow him to start this new life and a new race, those who were left behind are now considered Scavengers. Above all, the king wanted his legacy to continue and his children to be powerful. By doing so, he chooses the strongest witches within The Floating City to bear his children. Majority complied to his wishes, but one refused to give her child to the king. She smuggled her baby boy, Aidan, to the wastelands to live his life peacefully with a fellow witch from the willows. In exchange for his care, she was given Caleb to replace Aidan and live in the royal city. Twenty-five years go by and both are all grown up and without knowing their heritage. 

Their paths are bound to cross when the king finds out his authority is threatened and sends his "son" and an army to Tin City to eradicate the danger. What will be in store for the boys of Scavenger? Issue #1 of Scavenger is the origin story of Aidan's new journey as the hidden royalty with a hint of magic, born in the Emerald Palace inside the space colony, but lives in the wastelands. Written by Kim Roberts, Issue one is the prologue needed to jump start the series. The story builds at a steady pace and shows us a world with a dark history but potentially a revolutionizing future. While we now know where these characters came from, the mystery starts on what path these characters take. As for the art, don't take it lightly; Megan Huang did a splendid job designing the comic's world and sceneries. The story is violent and dark, however, there are scenes that ease that tension and harmonize the story as a whole. Scavenger #1 is an excellent sci-fi tale with a strong opening that'll keep the audience excited and leaves them pondering on the upcoming issues. Scavenger Issue One is a 24-page issue that will be a six part series. Scavenger Issue One is a brand new comic that is available digitally on ComiXology for $1.99.

Sweet Nothingness

WELCOME TO AN ALTERNATE REALITY AT COMIC UNKNOWN!

It's never about the destination but about the journey that brought you to it. In Alter-Life, we see Jake at what he assumed was the end of his road.  Widowed and without with daughter due to a car accident, Jake merely travels through what is left of his existence until he stumbles onto something beyond his control.  When he dies, he is just put back into the world as if nothing happened with minor difference around him. Things will never be the same for him but almost nothing has changed. Created by Caleb Thusat and art by Katrina Kuntsmann, Alter-Life Issue One is a beautiful science fiction that makes us ponder on whether there are alternate realities 99.99% similar to our current reality. It is definitely a fresh story that hasn't been seen in the comic world recently.  

The art fits the story perfectly with its unique style for a comic book. It sets the mood of what is going through our protagonist's mind as he ventures through each life he lives through. If Jake continues his voyage between realities, can he find the reality he is looking for or is he stuck forever in what could be his own hell? Could he become something more than a mourning widower, maybe someone elses savior? Only time will tell with future issues on what can Jake is destined for. Successfully funded through Kickstarter back in March 2016, you can now purchase a copy of Alter-Life Issue One at Village Comics' site for $1.99 digitally and $4.99 for a physical copy. If you want to know more on Jake and his journey, make sure to follow Alter-Life's Facebook page and Twitter.

Head Versus Head

WELCOME TO ANOTHER BODILY FUNCTION AT COMIC UNKNOWN!

Not Suitable for Children

We literally enter the mind of Morgan, an awkward but still average university student learning what he wants in life. Within Morgan are his organauts that monitor every single thing he does as they influence his thoughts, actions, and urges. Bran the brain controller being the leader of the crew faces the everyday decisions for Morgan but we soon learn that Pepe the penis controller only has one thing in mind. Pepe's constant rebellion begins to put a strain on what Bran has in mind for Morgan. The crew must embrace each other and work as a team to be able to accomplish everyone's desire, but can they even get past a wet dream that avoided the firewall? Morgan's Organs was written/created Daniel Brodie and illustrated by Robert Jennex. While not aimed for younger readers, Morgan's Organs features inappropriate dreams and raunchy moments that makes this adult version of Inside Out priceless. 

If you ever wondered how Inside Out would have worked through the eyes of a male college student, look no more. Morgan's Organs is a gut-busting comedy that while the idea has been seen before, it is the fresh take we need and want. Following the organauts through their struggle to make sure Morgan makes the right decisions but at the same time satisfy his needs. Having a handful of these characters revealed, we can only ponder  whether there are other characters inside Morgan that we haven't yet seen. Successfully funded back in March 2016 on Kickstarter, Morgan's Organs is 40 pages of comedic content with hilarious but great illustrations that follows Morgan and the journey inside his insides. Issue One is now available for purchase both digital and physical copy at its self-titled site. To follow Morgan and his organauts, check out their Facebook page, Twitter, and even Instagram.
