What does it mean to be human when your identity, your memories—even your love—can be rewritten by machines?
The second installment in the acclaimed Punkdroid series, PUNKDROID VOLUME II, is now live on Kickstarter. This 140-page, full-color anthology dives headfirst into the shadows of a tech-drenched future, where humanity wrestles with control, consciousness, and survival against the backdrop of dystopian machinery.
Crafted by 20 creators across 8 countries, Punkdroid Volume II offers 11 bold, self-contained stories that push the boundaries of science fiction and cyberpunk. Each tale confronts the dehumanizing forces of unchecked technology, corrupted governance, and societal decay—examining how these systems reshape identity, memory, love, and mortality.
From noir-soaked streets of Manhattan to digital exile in virtual wastelands, from AI-generated art to synthetic romance, Punkdroid is a raw, unflinching meditation on resistance—against corporate erasure, algorithmic identity, and the slow death of individuality. These stories aren’t just speculative fiction; they’re a mirror held to our increasingly digital present.
“We wanted to create something that didn’t just look futuristic, but felt emotionally real—something that resonated with the anxiety, hope, and rebellion of today,” says editor and co-creator Christian Douglas. “This isn’t just cyberpunk for cyberpunk’s sake. This is about the human soul under siege.”
The Kickstarter campaign offers exclusive rewards, including limited-edition covers, digital bundles, and original artwork.
Whether you’re a fan of gritty sci-fi, emotionally charged storytelling, or cutting-edge indie comics, Punkdroid Volume II is a must-read for anyone curious about where the future—and humanity—is headed. Check out the Kickstarter HERE!
