Having played video games where you have to make difficult decisions that affect the story, I wondered what it might be like if I presented similar choices to my comic-book readers,” said Luna. “This one-shot will display said choices and which ones received the most votes. It was also a blast re-entering the world of 20XX and showing a different side of it. I’m excited that Image is publishing Transport, giving this short story a wider audience!”
