Wingless Comics is back with a new series from Kickstarter that they are hoping will take off. And what takes off more than Mecha?! You might remember their previous big project Nightfall.
The story is that Earth has been divided into two regions. Our hero Nas Williams lives on lower Earth in the 7th Ward (no not New Orleans) but he's been having some odd dreams. On upper Earth, the winners of the EXODUS War are mad at him and his mother, and demand his capture. Fortunately for Nas and his friends, they skipped school and found a crashed mecha from that war. What could this mean?
The artwork was mostly stylish, and somewhat polished through most of the frames. Some readers will like the characters and text bubbles extending into other frames, but I found it slightly distracting. The bulk of the lettering was good but there was 1 unfinished bubble where it looked like he said "gay" but really said "say". Anyhoo, it's fairly high quality in most regards but the mecha battle was a bit confusing and not covered well.
Volume 1 is now available on the Wingless Comics website here. They threw in a teaser to Formula X Ones, a racing comic set in the same universe as Air Force Ones. I haven't read it yet because I know it'll be months before they finish it, so I'll wait for the full story.
