Preview: City: Mind in the Machine #1

February 11, 2014

IDW’s Darby Pop imprint brings us a book from Eric Garcia of Matchstick Men fame and Javier Fernandez that looks pretty interesting.

Here’s the official blurb: “Ben Fischer helped build the world’s greatest surveillance system, Golden Shield, which utilizes every camera, cell phone, and computer in San Francisco to battle crime. There is only one problem: Golden Shield can’t work without a human mind to operate it, resulting in a controversial melding of man and machine.”

Check out this Fernandez artwork from City: Mind in the Machine #1, the first part of a four-issue series due out tomorrow, featuring a cover from Tommy Lee Edwards.

Comic Channel Editor

Comics Editor Andy Hunsaker has written for Yahoo! Movies, Fancast, XfinityTV and UGO, among others, covering movies and television, and has loved comics ever since he read the giant-sized Marvel Treasury Edition of The Rampaging Hulk #26 four thousand times and grew to love guys with weird heads like M.O.D.O.K. and the Bi-Beast. Therefore, he will also defend Ang Lee's Hulk, although he understands why you don't like it and won't hold that against you.

As far as reviews go, he believes the main point of being a critic is not to pass yourself off as the final arbiter of quality passing holy judgment on a work of art, but rather just to share opinions so that the reader can decide whether or not the critic is someone whose tastes generally align with theirs. If so, that reviewer is one whose work you can trust if you're curious about a particular title. If not, cue loud, angry internet vitriol.
