Three futures hang in the balance.
Two end in total annihilation.
One assassin’s bullet will decide.
On the planet Sedulon, a rogue band of renegade time travelers and scientific misfits fight to save the futures of two worlds.
Doc Hydrabus - a brilliant scientist whose body splits into a crowd of his past and selves, he lives in one present and many futures all at the same time
Cassindra - 900 years old, impossible to kill and every bit as deadly as she is beautiful. She’s travelled back in time to change the world.
Rushaar and Shartara - alien beings made entirely of gas with one simple plan, to use time travel to assassinate the leader of Sedulon and save their planet Eidolonia.
The Parassassin - he will take the shot that decides the destinies of everyone in the galaxy.
Politics and parody collide on the bleeding edge of science fiction, in the most shocking and unexpected thriller you’re going to read this year.
The review:
This is one of the best UK independent graphic novels of the year. Scripted by seasoned writer Jasper Bark and illustrated by Indonesian artist Alfa Robbi, Parassassin first appeared in digital comic Aces Weekly, and now it's been revised and expanded in print for this superb softback book.
The artwork has a feel of a European comic album to me, which is a positive thing for international sales I think. It also makes a refreshing change to the numerous comics influenced by Manga or American comics. Jasper's script is inventive and polished, and a delight to read.
Published by UK indie company Markosia, Parassassin is available to buy from Amazon. Don't hesitate!
