In the far future of our tiny planet human population balloons to a critical mass. In an attempt to stop all suffering and save society, a group of scientific geniuses begin mind expansion experiments. One of their own—Dr. Medula —is the first to benefit from the procedure. Blind in their success, the scientists fail to notice the stirrings of ambition, and before a single other human can be evolved, Dr. Medula sabotages the subsequent experiments, turning his colleagues into a quivering collective of bodiless brains. Now seemingly unhindered, the doctor carries out his plan to reshape the world by genetically molding the human race into subservient thralls. Who could possibly stop him? Would you believe: a prehistoric caveman, a voluptuous flower child, and a vicious velociraptor?
A 48 page fully painted graphic novel. Truly a labor of love , this creator owned project has characters from the distant and recent past. Transported into the future, where they are given extraordinary powers in order to combat the evil Dr. Medula.

Chiodo has been recognized as an award-winning pin-up artist and illustrator.
