In the seventies, Marvel was tasked with making a comic book adaptation of 2001: A Space Odyssey.
It went completely bananas, and by issue 8 had created this superhero, a robot who achieved sentience after being exposed to a monolith.

I posted a not fun update to my GoFundMe. I fell and broke my back. I'm almost certainly paralyzed for life. I'll start a new GoFundMe when I know more what my life will look like in the future, but until then donations will help with lost income and my mom to pay for gas and VERY expensive parking.

Technobabylon has a great symphonic synth-style soundtrack that certainly evokes games like Deus Ex as well as the Vangelis music from Blade Runner, but it's also strong enough to stand on its own. Give it a listen!
