X'ed

From Black Mask Studios, X'ed (2015–present) is a four-issue series that explores a dystopian near-future where social media surveillance and corporate control have gone terrifyingly mainstream. Written primarily by Tony Patrick and Amancay Nahuelpan, with art by Ayhan Hayrula and Nahuelpan, the book blends cyberpunk aesthetics with sharp satire of digital-age paranoia. It matters as a compact, visually striking indie commentary on privacy, identity, and resistance, capturing the early anxieties of the 2010s tech landscape.
