Plot
The story is technically set in the present day (the first episode briefly shows a contemporary Earth; it's destroyed on the first page, and the last human in the universe, a survivor from the International Space Station, is ignominiously killed on the third), but revolves around a host of bizarre aliens using fantastically advanced technology. In the first series we learn little about the lead figure other than the fact that it is nearly indestructible, seeking out and destroying other aliens for reasons unknown. In the second series though, the character is shown to be some kind of liquid being encased in the suit. By the third, it becomes clear that 'Shakara' is an instrument of vengeance created by a now-extinct race of the same name... but the being is beginning to think for itself. Shakara is eventually killed by Cinnabar Brenneka, the legendary warrior who first united the Shakara in their conquest of the galaxy to cleanse it of corruption,and then allied with his former foes to destroy the Shakara, disgusted by their own descent into decadence.Comics
