SLiVer: Story 8/10 (Ellis very near his best); Art 7 (finely crafted, but no "spark")[That's my new thing, for uploads I've actually read. Guess the acronym, win a wish!]---'pedia excerpt ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supergod ): [A] 5-issue comic book limited series created by Warren Ellis, published by Avatar Press, with art by Garrie Gastonny. [... Released from] November 2009. " Supergod is the story of what an actual superhuman arms race might be like. It's a simple thing to imagine. Humans have been fashioning their own gods with their own hands since the dawn of our time on Earth. We can't help ourselves.

Dress it up as superhuman defense, as discovering the limits of the human body, as transhumanism and posthumanism. "---These are the brand-new Digital Hi-Res re-releases by Nahga-Empire, compiled into a single volume, and bookended with the traditional Minutemen scans of the (superior, IMHO) wrap covers in front and the regular covers in rear. Enjoy!
