Giga #1 (2020)

Shane Bailey on the first issue of Giga by Alex Paknadel, John Le, Aditya Bidikar and Rosh, published by Vault Comics:

Giga‘s imagery and characters made a mark and they continued to roll around in my head the entire weekend.

It’s about a civilization that centers around, and in, giant deactivated mechs. I found the world built around these mechs fascinating. It’s one of those ideas where you ask yourself, “How has no one done this already?” It’s not only brilliant, but it’s executed so well that you’ll be seeing these images and thinking about the world and the characters within it well after reading the first issue.

Walking with my squad 

“The Beatles were so big that it’s hard for people not alive at the time to realize just how big they were. There isn’t a real comparison with anyone now. I suppose Michael Jackson at one point, but it still doesn’t seem quite the same. They were so big that to be competitive with them was impossible. I’m talking about in record sales and tours and all this. They were huge. They were bigger than Jesus!”

Giga #2 Review

A book that pushed me away with a kind of inaccessibility that I can’t quite pin down.

Giga #1 Review

I’m cautiously optimistic because there are some really neat things you can do with this kind of concept and the right pieces are certainly here.
