I really enjoyed Tan Juan Gee’s Model Five Murder, which was just published by Silver Sprocket. This graphic novella is an intriguing sci-fi noir mystery with stylish art that investigates the issues of AI, technology, and labor. I’m very lucky to have been able to write a review for Comics Beat. Here’s an excerpt…
Model Five Murder is a thematically rich murder mystery that plays with the question of whether concepts like “victim” and “murderer” have any meaning in a situation involving artificial life and artificial intelligence. If memories and consciousness can be transferred between bodies, is it murder to shoot an android? If androids are proprietary technology owned by a corporation, who has the legal right to make decisions about their bodies?
