THE FUTURISTIC SCI-FI COMIC "TUSKEEGE HEIRS" IS A MUST READ

THE COMIC SERIES GIVES US NEW, YOUNG HEROES

Giant robots. Villains bent on destroying civilization. "Tuskegee Heirs" has everything we'd like to see in a comic series but the best part about it is, within the characters we see ourselves. The futuristic sci-fi action-adventure comic book series is set 80 years in the future, following a squadron of young, gifted aviators, who are forced to become Earth’s last line of defense against a menacing race of artificially intelligent villains. It is the brain child of illustrator/writer, Marcus Williams and Writer/editor Greg Burnham. The two created it with the intention of exposing more of this generation's youth to the history of aviation. And yes, in case you haven't already guessed, the comic pays homage to the iconic Tuskegee Airmen.

Marcus Williams already had a long and storied career as an illustrator for names like Cartoon Network by the time he'd thought up a rough concept of Tuskegee Heirs. Still, he noticed a void in stories that resonates with the youth like Voltron did when he was coming up. The idea was brought to professional writer Greg Burnham, and the two debated and argued their way into the concept that we know and love today.

While the story makes valuable references to the Tuskeege Airmen throughout, it brings forth a set of young heroes to its universe. The comic has four issues out, all available on the official Tuskegee Heir website. The team intends on continuing to push the story towards an animated series or movie. We're looking forward to see how this story unfolds for the Tuskegee heirs. Wherever it goes, we're definitely along for the flight.
