The Martians have delivered their first devastating blow. The crew of the HMS Thunder Child have barely recovered from their introductory skirmish with the alien tripods, before discovering the true extent of their devastating onslaught.
Arriving what what remains of the capital, the crew bear witness in seeing how far humanity has fallen. Tensions reach boiling point between our motely band of humanist scientists, war-hungry generals and jaded captains. Battle lines are drawn as our heroes must decide whether to save the crumbling ruins of a glorious empire, or the rapidly dwindling human survivors of an unstoppable invasion.
Thunder Child: The Impossible Invasion is the second chapter in Mad Robot and Madius Comics’ three-part reimagining of H. G. Well’s classic novel The War of the Worlds. Issue #1, The Spectre of a Dying Planet, was successfully crowdfunded last year and received a hugely positive reception from reviewers and readers alike. The crowdfunding campaign for issue #2 launches in the coming weeks here
