Today, the Kickstarter campaign for scifi military comic Critical Ops Task Force went live. The 130 page graphic novel, from Wise Acre Comics, contains 3 stories all set in a futuristic war-torn setting.

From the publisher –

 War has evolved. 

In a brutal near-future, elite mercenaries take on impossible missions for the highest bidder, where survival is never guaranteed and the truth is always buried.

This 130-page, full-color graphic novel delivers three explosive stories set in a violent, high-tech world where power always comes at a cost. 

In a fractured future, the Critical Ops Task Force is deployed into conflicts no one else can survive. They are the solution to impossible problems. But every mission leaves scars. As the line between right and wrong disappears, the team begins to question everything, their orders, their purpose, and the system they serve.
Are they saving the world… or helping destroy it?

Written by Nigel Lynch, Critical Ops Task Force: Volume 1 offers three stories, including The Prodigal Son, about a daring rescue mission, Stolen Salvation, about a rogue scientist, and Ruby Pixel: Ctrl Alt Delete, a cyberpunk thriller about fractured identity and digital ghosts.
