"The Drift" comic book miniseries is currently
being written.
Co-Created & Written: Kelly Bender
Co-Created & Illustrated: ??
I will be looking for the right illustrator for this project
at a future date.
(No! it has nothing to do with fast and furious cars :))
Elevator publishers pitch:
Think "HungerGames" meets
"PoseidonAdventure" meets "DieHard"
Outline:
In the not so distant future America, crime is so rampant
and prisons so over crowded that something had to be done.
The Country has switched over to a religious state. The
President is no more, the "Chancellor" rules the land now through the
words of "God".
But crime was still happening. In order to eradicate the
sinners "The Drift" is initiated.
Through a lottery style draw, criminals by the thousands are
selected to take part in "The Drift". The most hardened criminals are
automatically selected, rapists, murderers, serial killers... the rest are
selected through a random draw.
If you survive "the Drift" then your
"sins" are forgiven.
"The Drift" is broadcasted to the masses as a sort
of sermon, while it purges the sinners and shows "Gods will" to the
citizens.
When your numbers called can you survive "The Drift"?
