"Despite your best intentions, I have been created for one purpose ... as a weapon to annihilate Earth's enemies."
2073: Deep within the Mariana Trench a large anomalous object is discovered. Believed to be at least as old as the Earth itself, it is biochemically exotic and emits pulses of light that spell out coded mathematical data. It also appears to exist in a bizarre quantum state; simultaneously 'there' and 'not there'...
Is this the origin of all life on Earth... possibly all life in the universe?
Dubbed 'the Hand of God' by the media, speculation regarding its nature runs wild and a quasi-religious cult soon sprouts up claiming it to be the manifestation of the divine.
Meanwhile, researchers decode the strange emissions, discovering co-ordinates for a region of space near Jupiter's moon Ganymede that appears to act like a miniature black hole.
In 2078 the spacecraft N'Jal is sent to investigate and passes through the spacetime anomaly. The crew find themselves transported far from our Solar system and into the presence of an alien world... and a strange alien ship.
Could this be the beginning of a new chapter of interplanetary expansion and friendship?
Or the dawn of a conflict that threatens all human life?
The Killing Machine - Book One of The Hand of God by writer Darin S. Cape and artist Michel Fortin is many things: a compelling space opera, a philosophical exploration of the meaning of life and morality and a personal drama of redemption and revenge to name just a few. A decade in the making, this is a densely-crafted tale of disparate characters rising to the challenge of a universe full of mysteries.
Lieutenant Amanda Coni, former supermodel junkie ... Admiral Pellew, former explorer, now seeking justice through bloodshed ... Captain Richter, android supersoldier... all must confront the unknown, not only externally but also within themselves.
Fortin illustrates the saga with a visually rich style; finely detailed panels that include well-crafted spacecraft designs and evocative alien landscapes. The reader is rewarded with an action-packed deep dive into a complex epic that delivers on many levels.
Our heroes are engaged in a desperate battle in a distant star system that could determine the fate of humanity ... but this is only the beginning of a mystery greater than they could ever have imagined.
