End of chapter one
I like to take the time to promote a web comic made by fellow comic artist Mathieu Moyen. This week’s post on the 6-commando website is the final page for chapter one, I want to congratulate Mathieu with reaching this milestone. Because chapter one can now be read online in his entirety, this would be the best time to read the whole story from the beginning and get drawn into the conflict between the UNA (United Nations Alliance) and the FSR (Federative Socialist Republic).
For the few people who haven’t heard of 6-commando yet, here’s a little summary. The story takes place in 1997 in an alternate history, which has only seen one big world war and left the world with 3 major super powers, being UNA, FSR and a collaboration of the South American Coalition and the Arab League. In this setting we follow the lives of the people assigned to the 6-commando unit from UNA located in Kinshasa, Africa.
One of these people is actually a supersized robotic tank named Mike-1-Echo (see the picture on the right). When one of his colleagues, the lovely Major Sarah Bronniford is kidnapped by FSR soldiers, Mike goes in pursuit to rescue her, ignoring all other commands.
I have followed this story from the beginning and I loved it ever since. So I suggest you all go over to the website of 6-commando and be submerged in this thrilling war story with some of the most amazing art of this moment.
It will take a little time before the first pages of chapter two will be finished, but until then the artist has promised to post artwork on the regular schedule so don’t forget to return every Monday to read the latest installment.
Enjoy!
Joost.
