Michael Kanuckel's story creeped me out from the start. It has moments that combine classic VHS movies like McQueen's The Blob and some from John Carpenters The Thing. It does this with minimal characters and locations and uses its uniquely crafted story to conjure up images straight from nightmares. The characters are drawn so well that they are real. Their (and your own) fear becomes truly and horrifically tangible. When you enter this desolate nightmare, it leaves you wanting more. It has one of the best cliff-hangers I have read.

They don’t even realize the foreign energies are all around, lurking in the shadows.

We took the final step in evolution. Now everything is ending. My name is Revenant. My goal is to help humanity.

Without it, you create a dangerous imbalance that will lead to the destruction of your universe. The AAI is helpful now, but the balance will tip. It happens in every version of existence. I am trying to show you the only path ...
