Michael Bracco’s first Original Graphic Novel, Birth, comes to the iPhone/iPod touch

Issues #1 and 2 of Michael Bracco’s Birth are now available on the Apple iTunes marketplace as Birth: Aquan & Teran War!

Two doomed alien species, the Aquans and Terans, are at the brink of extinction. Their only solace is in placing blame on each other for their own evolutionary shortcomings.

Originally published by Alterna Comics, Birth is now skillfully adapted for mobiles by Robot Comics.
