The meme that won't die

Cyberpunk! I love it. So, apparently, do thousands of other people.

Long after it was declared dead, it rears it's ugly, chromed head in another guise.

NYC2123 is a creative commons webcomic in a cyberpunk dystopic Manhattan, optomised to be viewed on a PSP. How cool is that?

But one frame per page makes for a really tedious read...

I should add, this is probably very readable on a PSP/PDA, and opens up a whole number of questions about panel layout and structure in a comic book narrative.

I actually liked the layout. The whole page after page. Particularly powerful for the last few panels of the second comic.

I's say it's tedious because the story is cliched, anachronistic and slow-moving.
