Daniel Warren Johnson Joins Cyber League's SDCC Debut, New Sci-Fi Sports Comic Hits the Field
Daniel Warren Johnson, celebrated for his dynamic art in titles like "Do a Powerbomb!", is lending his talents to a new creator's debut: Anderson Carman's "Cyber League." This isn't just a guest cover; it’s a significant boost for a fresh sci-fi sports comic making its print debut at San Diego Comic-Con.
Carman, a Ringo Award nominee, introduces a thrilling future where baseball players routinely enhance their bodies with robotic augmentations. Not everyone buys into the tech, though. Protagonist Asher rejects the augments, instead rallying a team of "Natural" players to challenge the cyborg-dominated league. It’s classic underdog sports drama with a timely cyberpunk twist.
Published by 247 Comics, the "Cyber League" ashcan debuts at SDCC. Carman notes the comic wasn't initially an "anti-AI" narrative, but its underlying theme of technology's cost resonates powerfully today. Fans of high-stakes sports stories and cyberpunk will find a compelling new world here.
