Atomika #4
an issue of Atomika by Mercury Comics
Issue description
Russia’s western steppes were once a paradise, home to lush farms, thriving villages, and
bands of gypsies who had been traveling since the dawn of time. But that was long ago.
Now the fields have been stripped to feed Moscow’s poor, the young men and women of
the villages conscripted into the Red Army, and the gypsies branded traitors to the
Empire. Paradise has been re-made a wasteland, one ruled over by the ancient swamp god
Pripet — the deity Atomika has come to kill. Meanwhile, back in the capital, powerful
forces are assembling, all with the same question on their lips: “Has the God of
Technology outlived his usefulness?” Featuring a regular cover by fan favorite artist
Michael Turner (Witchblade, Soulfire, Superman/Batman), and a variant cover by series
inker Buzz (JSA, Vampirella)!
