Chapter: [Intermission] Slaves
Location: Lusitania
↓ Transcript
The panel takes the entire page. It features articles and photos stacked on top of each other.
Two photos show factories. One of them is labeled "Prosthetic Parts Factory in Pedroso. 25/11/2806" and shows a very young man looking over an assembly line of prosthetic hands. Another shows a child peeking through a glass window, accompanied with a much decayed desluso. Two pictures show people living in white mountains, and children herding sheep. On the back, a document with a figure of a skull emanating a brain pattern and titled "--Pathway Rewritting gui- University of Nova Aveiro, 2785"
Text continues from the previous page.
Manel: Lusitania doesn't care about its children. They're tools for making more tools. Taking their children might be the biggest good we're doing here. They don't deserve them. They just need their little hands to keep their industries going. The land isn't gonna plow itself. The Meditans aren't gonna defeat themselves, right? Make babies, work 'till you die. And then work a little more, why not? We'll put your corpse to work too.

Harsh! From that perspective it looks like catholic North Korea with zombies! 😨
Something tells me there’s no good guys faction in this here world.
Yeah, apparently; But at least still some good people even so…!
Some broken people, at least.
Broken enough to not make good cogs in either hell-machine.
Work work work 💪
Estou a gostar bastante desta banda desenhada.
O história, a arte… Para mim, de grande qualidade.
Teres criado uma história passado no futuro, com um “pseudo-Império Romano”, a forma como “reciclaste” o conceito de áugure, os pormenores – deliciosos, para mim – do mapa com “Aiterna” (Roma Aeterna…), as máscaras dos Caretos, a adaptação(!) das faculdades de Coimbra às novas necessidades de Port… (Lusitânia, desculpa!) e um ambiente divertidamente sombrio, com uns clarões de “humor-terror”.
Agradeço pela partilha desta banda desenhada e muitos parabéns pelo teu trabalho. 🙂
Am I the only one who thinks that putting a corpse to work is already a thing?
