Transhuman - Rivka's Story is written by Stephen Kok (5 Seconds, Terralympus and Word Smith) cover and interior artwork by Allen Sands and coloured by Chris Pitcairn (Fox and Hound and The Hell Courtesan).

The variant cover is done by Von Randal (Dragons, Terralympus and XCT) and coloured by Kevin Anthony De Castro. I loved how this cover turned out! This is Rivka when she was still serving in the army.

Transhuman - Rivka's Story is a perfect bound 60 page (Final page count to be confirmed), fully coloured graphic novel printed on 150gsm glossy interior paper and a 250gsm cardstock cover at standard comic size 260mm x 170mm (10.2" x 6.7"). (For those unfamiliar with gsm, I'm a bit of a paper snob and this is high end paper!) 

Transhuman - Rivka's Story details the world on the precipice of a major technologically shift. Suddenly no one isn't limited to the capabilities of the human body and with the right augmentation is able to transcend them. Follow Rivka (she's a transhuman) as she gets caught between two opposing views while having to resolve a dark secret from her past.

Rivka is an ex-soldier currently working as a bodyguard for hire. After an accident in the field, she had her right eye, ear and hand replaced with cybernetics. Her augmentations are connected directly via a neural link allowing her to perform superhuman actions.

Rivka still has flashbacks to that fateful event. She lives alone and her home life is a mess. She still carries a deep guilt from her previous life as well as coping with divorce proceedings which she suppresses with a nightly bottle of red. Even with the augmentations to be more than human, she can't escape the realities of her every day problems.

The 5 Seconds story follows Jake who develops the ability to see 5 seconds into the future. The PDF pack also includes a copy of Killeroo Scars, Belial #1 and XOB #1. That's a lot of comics to read in one single reward.

The main cover is illustrated by Allen Sands and coloured by Chris Pitcairn with the variant cover illustrated by Von Randal and coloured by Kevin Anthony De Castro. The approximate print run ration of the main cover to the variant will be 1 to 10.  

All copies of the MAIN COVER will come with a limited edition trading card. The artwork done by incredible Elena Ominetti and features Rivka asking if you need a hand. The original artwork for the trading card is also available as a reward!

Prints

The A5 Prints Pack consists of 2x A5 (8.3 x 5.8 inches) prints. This is larger than the size of a standard postcard on high quality cardstock. One of the prints is the fully coloured banner by Allen Sands and Chris Pitcairn, the other is an awesome sketch by Malaysian Wallace Cheong.

Original Artwork

I'm a huge fan of original artwork and there's some amazing pieces on offer in this campaign. All the artwork is shown below and are A4 (8.3 x 11.75 inches) in size. The superheroes are inked and coloured by Sebastian Navas who provides some of the interior pages of the artwork. Also on offer is the greyscale card artwork by Elena Ominetti.

It is very important to note that although all care is taken with the artwork, original artwork is never in perfect condition. There might be some slight imperfections depending on how the artist has stored or shipped them etc. It does not detract from the piece and would still be amazing framed.

Artwork on offer :

• Batgirl (Sebastian Navas)
• Elektra (Sebastian Navas)
• Psylocke (Sebastian Navas)
• Powergirl (Sebastian Navas)
• Supergirl (Sebastian Navas)
• Rivka - Trading Card artwork (Elena Ominetti)
