Description "Believe your Justice"

Japan is on a hegemonic warpath, pioneering the Pan-Asian Conflict. The Japanese have retrograded, calling a rise to the Zaibatsu and Shogunate. In cutting off connections with the West, they have crippled and monopolized the world.

America is in a state of chaos. Where national government trumps all, State lines became blurred. Bills have been passed to inflate the economy, creating a bubble where the US Dollar is virtually meaningless in the global perspective. In a world where policies restrict all human rights of liberty and freedom and status trumps merit, the United States has become the next target among crippling nations.

Meanwhile, a sector in America was forcefully sliced up, being dubbed as the "Asian Stratus Precincts", Asians fleeing the Pan-Asian Conflict seek refuge in America. As no real law exists in these lands, militant Great Families have risen -- merchants whose economic power rival that of any politician. Bloody battles for resources have been staged, and likewise, the American government wants to be involved.


In this future, no man is safe from persecution. This state of the world tests the very boundaries of science and religion, machinery and sorcery, human ethics and political policy. Prepare for the end.

I hope you keep this going! I adore it to death! Even as a web manga I would probably end up reading this for hours.

Great poster design. Love the limited use of red on b/w and how clean everything looks.

Interesting concept and I like the story. The art is well drawn and clean. Though I would believe that China would be a more dominate world player than Japan.

Thanks!

And yes, China does have a pivotal role in the story, just elsewhere. I have studied extensively Japanese culture and history, so I felt the story could be stronger if the role of the Japanese were more prominent.

I'm happy to hear that. It's best to stick with what you know, and by reading your intro I'm confident that you will do a great job with it. On a side note, I love your avatar ! Cheers mate.

Very interesting comic and an interesting dark backstory about a dark future that at this point sadly seems all too possible. I'm definitely interested in this series and awesome detail in the inks here!

exokopaka In reply to BerryPAWNCH [2011-06-12 09:38:22 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. Yeah, a lot of the story was compiled upon a lot of modern politics and historical wars that I augmented and retold.

All of the work was done on Adobe Illustrator. Took about a year to do all of the characters, but I got it done! In doing this project, I eventually grasped the program very well.

Be sure to subscribe and keep up! I hope to get the comic into production soon!
