Unit 5

In the dystopian near-future of Unit 5 (2015–present, Red Anvil Comics), a covert government program deploys a squad of enhanced operatives to contain a spreading technological plague. This three-issue series from the indie publisher Red Anvil blends political thriller with sci-fi action, anchored by its focus on a small, morally ambiguous team rather than a lone hero. Though brief, the series earned attention for its tight, high-stakes storytelling and its exploration of control and contagion in a world gone sideways.
