This week we share the the fourth and final installment of the "found footage" from the world of Dystopia. Although the city and its inhabitants remain shrouded in mystery, news and rumor have filtered out and an understanding of what is occurring in the city once known as Haven is taking shape.

Next week, we'll venture down to the second level and the world of the Midwives... A tale known as Midwife, aborted.

We look forward to you joining us!

The free weekly webcomic updates on Monday. Dystopia offers unique takes on storytelling through genre-spanning arcs set in a richly imagined, multi-layered world. Across its towering levels and shadowed undercity, you’ll encounter cyberpunk conspiracies, gangland rivalries, corporate cults, digital ghosts, and the quiet struggles of those trying to survive between the cracks. With each story, Dystopia invites you deeper—into a world that feels both impossible and eerily familiar. The world expands as you read, revealing patterns, echoes, and secrets hiding just beneath the surface. It’s an evolving experience that rewards curiosity.
