System Error: Silent Dystopia Brings a Wordless Graphic Novel to Kickstarter
Reading time: 1 minute
System Error: Silent Dystopia is live on Kickstarter. This is a new type of release for System Error and Blue Fox Comics. This book is a completely silent graphic novel. Four ITTO robots cross through the deserted British landscape in four stories.

The campaign launched on the 10th November, and runs until the 27th November, with a funding goal of £3000. It's hit over £7000 after just one day!
Phil Chapman created System Error, writing, drawing and lettering the original six issues. That series followed ITTO, a leaflet distribution robot that wakes in an abandoned London. Silent Dystopia keeps the setting and drops the text entirely. The images carry the whole story.
System Error: Silent Dystopia will be released as an A4 hardback book. It's billed as a crossover between a graphic novel and a coffee table illustrated art book. The stories further add to the System Error universe using only single and double splash page images.

Two further books come with the campaign. Speedy is a System Error one-shot covering what that character was doing before civilisation fell. A new edition of the March of the Robots volume two sketchbook is also available, collecting images adjacent to the System Error world.
You can back System Error: Silent Dystopia on Kickstarter until 27 November.
