The Engine

The Engine is a Flash webcomic series created by Simon Furman, Andrew Wildman (both from the comic book scene, most particularly Transformers), Ed Cookson and producer and New Media expert Adam Jennings.

In The Engine, the relentless march of industrialization has driven mankind to the brink of extinction. In a world out of control, its resources leached by greedy manufacturing cartels and driven by voracious machines the size of cities, one man vows that if the world won't fix itself, he'll do it for them. His name is Renard. Key to Renard's subversive strategy, code-named Industrial Strength, is The Engine—HGV, Steampress, Axel and Shift—a hard-bitten crew of freelance mechanical troubleshooters. They go where others fear to tread, into the heart of the monstrous machines teetering on the brink of catastrophic collapse.  ogether they must turn back the relentless march of industrialization... by force if necessary.

The Engine: Industrial Strength comes with a whole world of possibilities to explore in any number of different media. Colorful characters, dire villains, stunning and visually dynamic technology and a truly apocalyptic backdrop are just some of the key facets of this expanding license.
