Diamond In The Rough #2 – Sophia Awakening

Nature and humans have taken their toll on the planet, the world we know is gone. In a city above the clouds, harbouring the last technologically advanced civilization on the planet, the story begins. Sophia Awakening is an Epic Sci-fi Drama that follows the story of Sophia, a sentient artificial intelligence that has been uploaded into a human body.
The Good:
The artwork is full colour pages in, what feels to be, a mix between a western and lightly manga inspired style. In the earlier books (1-2) the art seemed to have a little trouble staying on character model which lead to a bit of a difficult read it but it has cleaned up a large amount by the end of Volume #1. The flow of the artwork has also been greatly improved in the 4th book.
I’m just going to jump directly to saying that the story really finds its groove in book four. That’s not me saying that the first three aren’t interesting just that they are your typical plot establishing and character introduction books. It’s not until the fourth book where you get a better understanding of the world and the crooked politics that are taking place within it.
The Bad:
My first run in with this comic was through a link on TWCL that directed me to a Drunk Duck page. This page is a mangled wreck and didn’t make it very easy to navigate the pages but luckily the comic is also hosted on a decently polished WordPress/ComicPress site. The only thing that I didn’t like about the site is that it has a splash page before entering that is of little to no use.
If you’re into Sci-fi then it’s definitely worth checking out.
