Today we look at a web comic that is, in its own way, attempting to do with web comics what Stan Lee did with the early days of the Marvel Superhero Universe. Basically, writers Eric Carter and Jason Bane do a series of web-comics all within the same universe. Every comic can be read on its own, but the comics read together gives you a sense of the universe that they have created and that all of the characters inhabit. What you have is five alien races and their experiences once inter-planetary travel has been discovered. So each comic shows you a little bit of each race, but since they’re all one big universe (and the stories are set all over the place, timeline-wise) you learn new things about the shared universe no matter what book you’re reading.
