Night Hunters

By Alex Ziritt and Dave Baker. Published by Floating World Comics

Softcover, 128 pages, Colour, 2021.

Night Hunters is a pulsing cyberpunk classic that tells the tale of two brothers who have to navigate the futuristic dystopian world of Venezuela, 100 years in the future.

How far would you go for your family? Would you enlist in a corrupt police department and slowly sell your body-parts for cyborg replacements so that your aging father can have a roof over his head? The only answer is pick up your gun and put one foot in front of the other.

This sci-fi epic by indie comics all-stars Alexis Ziritt (Space Riders, Tarantula) and Dave Baker (F*** Off Squad, Star Trek Voyager) combines the political sharpness of Paul Verhoven and the bleak sense of humor of Judge Dredd. If you’re on the search for the next great genre must-read this combination of Robocop and Blade Runner is definitely what you want.

“A joy and a terror to behold, Baker and Ziritt get our hearts a’pumping and then all together break them, as they pit a pair of brothers against each other, in this dystopian sci-fi masterclass. “

– Andrew MacLean (HEAD LOPPER, ApocalyptiGirl)

“A brutal, honest, and uncompromising vision of the near future, brought to life with stunning art. Night Hunters is science fiction comic book storytelling at its best.”

– James Tynion IV (Something is Killing the Children)

“Dave Baker and Alexis Ziritt are the Crockett and Tubbs of indy comics. They show up and produce badass and original work while making it all look super stylish as it all goes down. Their sleeves are rolled up. They’ve done the job. Incredible!”

– Jim Mahfood (Grrl Scouts, Tank Girl)
