Well it's set in 1935 Detroit. There was a revolution and the USA has been taken over and put under a totalitarian rule. My main character is a freedom fighter. I plan on making it look very art deco/Metropolis. Well, I plan on having my artist…

Velvet Cyberpunk replied to Tome Wilson's discussion 'BioShock'

Since you've played System Shock 2 you will recognize the story and much of the game play. Be warned it is a bit of a milder version than SS2, but SS2 is pretty hard core. If you go into BioShock not expecting a SS2 remake you'll like it…

Velvet Cyberpunk replied to Tome Wilson's discussion 'BioShock'

BioShock is my third favorite game of all time, only behind Deus Ex (#1), and System Shock 2 (#2). It's an amazing experience and I love playing it. I've seen the trailer for the sequel and it looks pretty amazing. I don't know why…

Yes indeed, I always maintain the diesel aesthetic. My comic is very alternate reality. My comic is set in 1935 so I'm even using the old slang from that period. It's nice to meet all of you. I hope to have something to submit to…

Dieselpunk can be cyberpunk seen through a retro-futuristic filter. That's how it started originally. To make it really dieselpunk however, the setting needs to express the zeitgeist of the diesel era. You can even blend the two genres if…

Hello there. Seams like your interpretation is not to different to my own. I actually prefer the term retro futurist. Building a brighter tomorrow with the asthetics of our illustrious forbears.

Hey, welcome Velvet! I'd be interested in reading your comic, sounds like an interesting take on the subject. PS. You're not too far from me, I'm down in Lancaster. :)

Hey there, I'm new and currently working on a dieselpunk comic book.

I discovered this place a while ago but never got around to doing anything until now. I am currently working on two cyberpunk comics and on dieselpunk. Of course my definition of dieselpunk is different than this sites it would seem. I see dieselpunk being closer to cyberpunk...well actually I always write it as cyberpunk seen through a retro-futuristic filter. Like Blade Runner if it was dressed up like Flash Gordon or Lang's Metropolis. It's nice to be here, and I hope to make lots of new…See More
