INDIE BOOK SPOTLIGHT: RAPID CITY: OBJECTS AT REST

RAPID CITY:
OBJECTS AT REST

Published by: Monolith LLC.






              I'd like to dub this publication the "most refreshing" indie read of the YEAR for the whole crew at VIGILANT GEEK MEDIA. Written by Josh Dahl and illustrated by Anad Kaviraj, this intimate case study on the real life obstacles one would likely face when dawning a mask and cape WILL NOT DISAPPOINT. Within Rapid City, a city already riddled with costumed vigilantes and superheroes, we meet Brian, a young aspiring superhero. All Brian wants to do is introduce his own brand of justice on Rapid City's baddies, but all of his real life obligations, (ie. the job, the girlfriend, the weird superhero social clicks), all seem to get in the way. It isn't until Brian finds his inner strength, his independence and his superhero nickname that he finally understands his destiny as "Kinetic." This awesome tale of inner struggle forces the protagonist to look in the mirror and analyze himself, and in turn, forces readers to take a good look at themselves as well, raising an important question within the story and within the minds of readers. "Monkey" said it better than anyone ever could in issue one; "You think you can step up?" Rapid City: Objects at Rest is a fantastic, original and pensive read for all ages!!

  1. Great post, man, but that grey text against the batman background is nearly impossible to read. Please change it so there is a greater visual contrast for the readers.
