Backtrack Vol. 1 by Brian Joines

Emyra,

Thanks to Netgalley and the wonderful folx at Oni Press for the digital galley.

“Like Death Race, but with time travel. ” -Me. That’s it. That’s the review. JK.

I didn’t get up to much after work yesterday. Was in bed a little after 8, but I did read this awesome trade collection of the first six issues of Backtrack, annnnnd imma need more. Like yesterday. It really is like Death Race but with dinosaurs, some cebturion like soldiers annnnnnd Soviet operatives.

Imagine if you had the opportunity to fix your biggest mistake. That’s the offer to all of these racers who have come to compete for the win. It’s just a 30 mile drive, how hard could it be? Turns out VERY hard. These characters will race through time, but only one will survive to fix their mistakes. People with nothing left to lose will do anything, and the game master knows that.

I love the concept. The art is dope, and I can’t wait to see where this series goes. This collection is out now if it sounds up your alley.

By day, I lend books to people all over the world, by night, I roam the streets as a masked hero, saving kittens from drains and tree limbs. Nah, just kidding. It's dark outside. I watch a lot of movies, read a lot of books, and take graduate classes that I love but will never lead to a higher salary. Questions? Fantastic! Hit me up on the contact form.
