When a small act of mischief forces them to flee their home, they discover a forgotten relic that – if unleashed – will smash the status quo and cause potential anarchy between the two cities.”

Meanwhile, the Cyborg Youthanisers have not forgotten the powerful relic they encountered during their defeat in Scarcity. The youth of today needs to learn an old lesson; Respect your Elders!”

REVIEWS
“Boom Bandits” will bring to mind the aggressive glory years of 2000AD…. Of course, great art is nothing without a decent story, and Stahl once again comes up trumps, with the highest praise I can give being that I REALLY want to read the next issue.”
”Boom Bandits is a big, brash comic full of fights, satire and showcases some great art. If you’re a regular visitor to the mean streets of Mega City One or Neo-Tokyo you’ll probably enjoy the world of the Boom Bandits. ”
“It has a real post-apocalyptic dystopia feeling, it’s take on “old vs young” is one that feels fresh and new. The first part features commentary which I hope are further explored later, and it ended on a cliff hanger which made me want to come back for more.” – Matt Dykes – After The Hype Network
Gramps and Guttersnipes – A Review of Boom Bandits – After the Hype Network
“This is a comic for all generations with plenty of action and a lot going on, you really get your money’s worth. This is the ‘New Hope’ part of the story, but I’m sure we’re going to see the Empire Boomers Strike Back!”
Advance Review – 3 Million Years
“Boom Bandits is a strong comic, one that manages to be entertaining, engaging, and evocative. It has a bold and vivid art style that really complements the tone of the story… Not only would I recommend this book, I’m interested in seeing what the creator does next.”
