Get the squid! The cover for Guttertown Massive seduces right away. A brutal beauty with bloody, bandaged fists is surrounded by a techno squid. Welcome to the twisted future created by K.C. Silver (aka Casey Silvia) and artist Dimi Mac. This urban sci-fi fantasy is pulsing with cyberpunk influences.
Imagine refugees from the twisted futures of Mad Max, The Matrix and Johnny Nmenonic all fighting for fame and survival in a crowded industrial underworld. Davron and Reno are competitors in a war of beats. K.C. plants the seed for a bitter rivalry in a massive futuristic party scene in a dark, crowded world that the youth yearn to escape. Born in the gutter – these desperate artists hope to blast their way out on the fame of their beats.
After the creepy colored cover turn inside for the black and white world of the gutter. Dimi Mac packs the panels. The pages are bursting with dark energy. I think the crowded art reflects the overcrowded world these ravers are fighting to find their way out of. Find you way to Guttertown Massive and experience Beat fighting yourself. Expand your horizons and take a dose of this.
