Overview

Matt Bors — the founder of The Nib and a political cartoonist who has twice been named a Pulitzer Prize finalist — and Ben Clarkson — an acclaimed filmmaker and illustrator whose art has been featured on Adult Swim and Vice Noisey — have teamed up to create JUSTICE WARRIORS!

The acclaimed dystopian satire, written and co-created by Pulitzer Prize finalist Matt Bors! Welcome to Bubble City - the world's first perfect city. A bustling metropolis flourishes inside its protective shell, a city of equality, diversity, and prosperity, with no crime whatsoever. But outside of the Bubble lies the Uninhabited Zone, a densely populated and vast slum where the majority of the mutant population actually lives.

After his partner is killed in the line of duty—run over by a self-driving bus—Bubble City's veteran Swamp Cop is partnered with rookie, Schitt. The increasingly cynical Swamp Cop becomes obsessed with arresting or killing the bus, as he begins to suffer PTSD. Haunted by hallucinations of his dead partner, Swamp Cop is determined to show the naive rookie Schitt that you can only police the UZ by bending every rule in the book.
