TOP COW’S TOP-SELLING SERIES RETURNS IN A GROUND-BREAKING WAY! Top Cow celebrates its 20th anniversary with the return of the series that started it all: CYBER FORCE! Top Cow founder MARC SILVESTRI (THE DARKNESS, Incredible Hulk) returns to his first Image series as co-writer, art director and cover artist! Co-writer MATT HAWKINS (THINK TANK, LADY PENDRAGON) and artist KHOI PHAM (Mighty Avengers, Daredevil) join SILVESTRI to bring you a contemporary re-imagining rooted in cutting edge, real world technology. Carin Taylor, codenamed Velocity, has escaped from the CDI controlled Millennium City and is desperately trying to find the one man she believes can help her prevent the end of the world. When she runs a group of other CDI escapees, will they help her… or turn their backs?

I need to admit here that this comic book gives us a pretty solid sci-fi action and an on-ramp to the franchise’s transhuman corporate-conspiracy roots, without fully distinguishing itself from other cyberpunk-adjacent team books.

I need to admit that the plot in this comic book is very interesting because it talks about corporate surveillance, predictive algorithms, and bio-augmentation which I personally found to be very fun and enjoyable.

However when it comes to the characters in this comic book I had a very hard time telling the characters apart. Because all of the characters in this comic book felt like the same person because they had very similar personalities to each other. 

The world building aspect of this comic book sometimes leans on tell over show, slowing momentum between action beats. Which hasn’t worked for me personally which is the reason why I haven’t given this comic book a higher rating.

The artwork in this comic book are very polished which was easily my favorite aspect of this comic book. The tech designs and cybernetic detail are standout because of how good they were. 

Cool palettes and neon which this comic book has accents sell the cyberpunk vibe without tipping into visual noise.

I Give This Book 3 / 5
