Exclusive Preview: 'Quarter Killer' introduces new vision of the future
, the digital comic they star in, isn’t like any other comic series, either. Ahead of the series launch this Wednesday,has a preview of the first issue, as well as a conversation with its creators.
Vita, you alluded to this already, but the book feels like a purposeful response to the fact that so much sci-fi, and especially the cyberpunk-esque space that this feels like it fits into, is, well, filled with cis white dudes frowning a lot. This is more colorful, and for all the retro touches, feels far more like the future. Am I reading too much into that?I grew up on sci-fi, both hard and more gentle, gritty and shiny. It was my first love as a genre, and will always be where I return to.
I think what makes even the retro touches feel futuristic is that it’s not simply a future that we made brown and queer. It’s our future, it’s the future of the people that Vita and I grew up around, that we become, and how those communities react to what comes next.. I spent a few weeks prior to working on the book just coming up with a color palette that I could always go back to. Finding colors that worked well together under different lighting.
The folks over at ComiXology have been incredibly supportive of us doing our thing. I think part of it is the medium and the story, absolutely — and yes, a cyberpunk book that is digital definitely has a nice flavor to it — but I think part of it is that they are confident of us as a team.ComiXology really allowed us a lot of freedom, and that means that we’re telling the exact story that we set out to tell.
