MOONFIRE LAB

Independent comics by Kenny Aitken

Apex Cybernetic Samurai Owl

The year is 20XX. A shadowy corporate organization in Japan named Project Doom bird has had a breakthrough in their quest for world domination. Scientists for the project have developed the A.P.E.X. module, (Adaptive, Parallel, Energy, Xenium.) a one-of-a-kind technology that gives the user the ability to “learn” or “absorb” combat proficiencies from technological and organic beings. Shortly after affixing the module to Unit 10, a lab grown cybernetic owl, Unit 10 goes berserk and kills his
creators, destroys the lab, and barely escapes with his life. Injured during his escape, he crashes in the mountains, and is found damaged by Kenesu Hasegawa the last known member of an ancient Samurai order. Hasegawa manages to repair Unit 10, and trains him in the ancient ways of the Samurai. Knowing that Apex’s creators will be searching for him, and that the end of his own life is near, Hasegawa keeps him hidden and continues to train Apex, in hopes that he might succeed him as the last protector of Japan.
