The seventy-sixth comic: #438 The Nikopol Trilogy

Sometimes, you really need to look at different parts of a work to appreciate what it does well. The Nikopol Trilogy creates an interesting world, a grim near-future world where fascism has taken root, technology has changed lives, but many people are still suppressed. Your partial entry into this world is the titular Nikopol, who comes back from suspended animation thirty years later. He gets possessed by Horus, the Egyptian god, fighting the others. It's an odd story and while the first part of the trilogy makes some sense with it, later parts set up a plot that doesn't really go anywhere. There are no explanations - which is fine - or resolution - which can be fine - but I also felt there was no point to it, like the creator didn't bother with the plot and just wanted to draw nice images. It's an interesting world and I was happy to see it, but it would have been nice if we could have gone deeper.
