Unity 1 preview
Didn't see this posted yet. All apologies if I missed it. This looks really good. I like the unexpected POV.

Re: Unity 1 preview
its unity #1 and the character narrating the story fits the profile of what we think Erica Peirce looks like (female, brown hair, mid-30's) but besides that ... i'm not sure i'm seeing it either.tchalla8 wrote:Did I miss something? Why do we think that's Erica Pierce?
Erica was a scientist ... this character was a food writer
It might be a re-imagined version
It could also be wishful thinking?

I'm definitely intrigued ... it was a nice preview

**EDIT**
I removed the image from my post
Its an officially released preview which I think makes it ok to post the image in this discussion thread ... but I'd rather not rock the boat

I posted the image in the "Unity ..what does it mean?" thread in the spoiler section

Re: Unity 1 preview
There aren't really any spoilers in the preview, if you're caught up on X-O Manowar and the general news about Unity. Apparently a woman with brown hair has to be Erica Pierce, because there's only one of those in the world.jmatt wrote:Spoiler section please!

Re: Unity 1 preview
Wait, wait, WAIT! But this is a woman... with brown hair... in a book called UNITY!!! So therefore she MUST be Erica Pierce, even though she's not a scientist or wearing silk battle fatigues.kjjohanson wrote:There aren't really any spoilers in the preview, if you're caught up on X-O Manowar and the general news about Unity.

Re: Unity 1 preview
In that case, if Dr. Mirage can be a woman in this incarnation, we'll just make Erica an Eric. Would we still need to see him naked to know for sure?bygranddesign wrote:Yeah we need to see her naked ..we'd know for sure then


Those sheer fatigues were tasteless. Looks like something Madonna would have worn in the early 90s. If this is some form of Erica, I hope she's not a psycho molester this time around, see-thru pants or not. Ick ick ick. Her story would have been message enough (god-like powers in a deeply flawed human who's intentions become twisted) without having made her into a such a pervert.

She was a victim herself so there was a point being made there. From a scientist to a photograper is the thing that got me

But to be serious, I don't consider what Erica wore as tasteless or gratuitous - that would imply it was pointless. I think like you said she was a deeply flawed person who became a god. She hated herself so much that she killed her Human self when she went back in time. She completely disconnected from humanity and left all shame behind. When you think of Gods in myths you think of them as half clothed or naked. So I think it made sense for her to wear that look.
You see it with men too. look at Ivar in the 2nd issue of A&A .. He comes to Archer as a God like vision. Ivar is Completely naked in that scene with only a few strategic clouds covering his privates.
I think it's just something with Gods or those with tremendous power. They just like to be naked. And if you don't like it. They will smite you.

Re: Unity 1 preview
At first look it sort of has the "Marvels" feel about it, the point of view from the layman sort of.
I have looked at it three times already, the artwork gives me chills.
