If you’re impatient for book 2 of Octopolis, here’s another cephalopod-centric fantasy comic on Kickstarter in need of some love:
Spoctopus #1 - The Action Packed Gladiator Octopus Comic
Witness the legend of Spoctopus, the gladiator octopus who freed himself from slavery to wage war on the evil Empire of Atlantis.

This was a challenge to approach for my Octopolis deck, because octopuses don't view hanging as a trial-- it's just another Wednesday to them.

In Octopolis, its inhabitants selectively breed species of kelp that grow enormous 'pneumatocysts' that are then used to offset weight. The octopus in Justice here has achieved neutral buoyancy with the kelp buoys it's holding.

The monkey's fortunes have undergone a reversal since the Smith-Waite and Thoth decks. They're on the way down, below the surf and suffering for it. This reflects primate prospects in Octopolis: homo sapiens is extinct, and there's a new dominant species on the planet.

The ribbon eel is on the way up, it seems, but they're not in better shape. They breathe water! As previously noted, Eels are the mythical adversaries of the octopus but in the world of Octopolis, they’ve been domesticated and subordinated to their cephalopod overlords.

In real life, nesting marks the end of the female octopus’s life, but in the world of Octopolis the species has escaped from their evolutionary oubliette. So our Hermit retains a sense of herself that will be reborn from this, a vision of themselves continuing into the future. Hence the light.
