The New York Times say " Like nothing else we've seen ..."

Like magma,born from the fevered depths,the very core of  Spokes Monkey Incorporated , a bit of dashing daring-do in the grand tradition. A saga unfolding in Earths endtime. It brings to us a cornucopia of mangled humanity set against a backdrop of recycled decay. A twisted culture who's on-coming distruction is as hidden to them as is the mystery of their very origins.

Stunningly illustrated through out  Land of the Black Sky brings to life a futuristic tale,full of snappy one-liners and timeless pathos in equal measure. With a texture worthy of  Ridley Scott's stunning ,some would say ground breaking, film  Blade Runner  there's just as much of a tip of the hat to Herge's Tintin series of comic books. We find a society way off kilter, blinded to it's fate and living with it's fingertips scratching on the edge extinction.
