IKARIA 6

A science fiction adventure by Benjamin Maack adapted into a 5 part animated webcomic podcast by Sebastian Stamm.

Somewhere in space. Five astronauts travel through space on board the spaceship IKARIA. The crew is topographing stars, developing experiments and spending their time playing video games. Why or where are they going? Somehow no one has been asking this question for a long time. Then an accident happens and sets off a series of disturbing events. Is there a sixth creature hiding on the ship? Is the crew real? What does “real” mean? And does it even matter? A science fiction adventure, nightmare and disturbing parable about the limits of humanity – and the secrets behind them.
