I’m tired of hard-boiled detectives and mercenaries with augmentations. I want some cyberpunk stories with middle-finger-in-the-air, anti-authority, non-confirmist, angry punks. Can anyone give me some recommendations? Movies, games, books, whatever. Just something with a punk rock attitude… more than Johnny Silverhand.

I’m thinking things like Hackers, or Burst City, or the SINless duology, or maybe Cookie Cutter (which I haven’t played). I’m annoyed that I can’t think of more than that…

And I’m hoping KILLTUBE actually comes out. Although while it looks extremely punk, I’m not sure if it’s angry punk. We’ll see.

    Have you read the Ghost Rider 2099 comics by Len Kaminski? The art is good too, but Kaminski’s writing and cyberpunk stylings is inspired and inspiring.

      Is that the one from 1994 or 2019? I haven’t read either, I’m just curious which one is better. The art looks cooler in the 2019 version but for all I know, the story may be worse.
