Media Meltdown: A Graphic Guide Adventure

While learning about media consolidation and the power of money over truth, Bounce, Pema and Jagroop decide to take on the developers and the media.

When Karl Reed, Owner of Oasis Developments, tries to force the sale of a local fruit farm―through whatever means necessary―Pema, Bounce and Jagroop decide to expose him through the media. Little do they realize that when it comes to the news and the advertisers who make it possible, the truth is not always part of the story and nothing can be taken at face value.
