From Above Issue 3
Craig Bruyn
PB
$7.00
Still devoid of answers after the
confrontation of Kreel in Docklands,
Parker & Gabe consult the survivors
from the truck. Issue #3 of From
above introduces a new villian, Snare
& continues the tale of the collapse of Government in
a futuristic Melbourne City.
STAFF REVIEW: FROM ABOVE
From the creative mind of local Melbourne writer and illustrator, Craig Bruyn, this comic series
is a great new find. Set in a futuristic Melbourne
where the corporations rule the streets and
super-powered beings, ‘Alphas,’ work outside
the law to protect citizens from city’s corruption.
Gabe, an Alpha, roams the city on a mission to
keep the peace, but when a regular assignment
goes awry, he finds himself drawn into a much
bigger conspiracy. This self-published comic is
action packed, lots of fun and full of heart. Well
worth a look. Rebecca.
