It’s no secret that I’m a huge Penny Arcade fan, but their latest short story, Automota, has been a really fun read. It’s a futuristic, detective-noir tale of sorts that reminded me a lot of Asmiov. You can blitz through it in about 5 minutes time, but it’s a great 5 minutes to say the least. It’s nice to see that their fan-base is so well established that they can take a break every now and then from their video game sub-culture banter and enjoy making something they’re clearly passionate about.
You can check out the first entry in the series here, and then part two and so on here using the ‘next’ links underneath the comic. Make sure you use the part two link I just posted after you read the first part as there was a large gap between part one and the rest of the story.
