CELSIUS
PRIME
Celsius Prime is a science fiction comic series about Shirin, born and raised in the outer colony districts and barely scraping by after being excommunicated by the local leaders, and Nico, the shady con woman that defrauded her.
Thanks to a potent mixture of overconfidence and bad luck, both end up in the deep end together with the eye of a powerful sovereign corporation landing on them.
What to do then, when things get out of hand and violence breaks out?
Sacrifices are made and it looks like they will need to prop each other up for the foreseeable future.
CELSIUS PRIME - EARLY DAYS
LIFE is tough in Ventura Ward. The district has been marred by conflict between rival groups and warlords, trying to seize control. Residents make a living from the flow of goods brought by spotty trade via grav-ships docking at the sky-port, and from supporting the hungry crews they bring. Unless a particularly violent spat between the bigger players spooks the ship captains or their bosses, of course. Between all that uncertainty, young Shirin finds herself lost and alone, but a chance encounter might just solve all her problems...
The prequel comic to the main CELSIUS PRIME story.
