The Swamp Thing and the Turd are back for some managed-democracy election intrigue. Perhaps even more ultra-violent and disgusting than the first volume. Main plot is an officer-on-leave-going-deep-undercover story. Asks us to imagine what if Deckard was a swamp monster with a Tindr profile. Oveerall, Justice Warriors is like a combination of Blade Runner, and Lynch's Dune, with some Michael Moorcock and Lisa Hanawalt thrown in too. I like the Bors art visions of the Bubble City online milieu. The more extreme sci-fi elements of Justice Warriors really highlight to me how thoroughly cyberpunk has become our reality.
