Project Skyborg, the Air Force’s prototype AI pilot, has turned into a complete disaster. While the system works, it has unfortunately been hijacked by agents of the Circle, a shadowy criminal organisation whose nefarious plans Buck has already thwarted several times.
The terrorists are now in possession of an AI-controlled F-16 with which they intend to strike an important target and start a deadly war. They have also called upon Sato, who’s kidnapped Sonny and plans to use him to lure his sworn enemy Buck into a trap … The conclusion of a two-part story started in volume 14.
ooh. AI being a "bit of a thing" at the moment this was timed well. The art and story flow well with plenty of -well, almost an overload- of action. Sonny has his very own side story and gets the gal in the end to boot. Some of the dialogue seemed a bit odd such as "Heavens!" as an exclamation and "you piece of garbage!" It may seem odd due to my age and watching Wesley Snipes movies again -after all the books have a rating. Shouting "You **** Goddam ***** of a *****!" might be a bit out of place.
I'm old.
I never realised how tough a military pilots life is: flying high tech aircraft and James Bond style action. Maybe they need a pay rise? This would make a great action movie and when a comic album is good enough that you think that then it must be good. Right? Well, it got to volume 15!
