Geek Start A Go Go: Hero Punk
Hero Punk?
From the creators: “We created Hero Punk because we believe there are not enough dark, hard science fiction films in the world. We also wanted to do something with Superheroes in the future. Hero Punk is a dystopian, hard sci-fi superhero film that — we believe — the studios would never make.
“If you are a fan of Chronicle, Blade Runner, Dark City and The Matrix, you’ll probably like Hero Punk. If you read comics and graphic novels like Preacher and Transmetropolitan, you’ll almost certainly love Hero Punk. We are fans of those comics and we believe it shows in our film.”

Style of Hero Punk
Hero Punk takes place in a dystopian, cyberpunk future. It is a combination of a style called “Steam Punk”, along with a present which hold nano-bots, bio-enhancements and gene therapy.
The world stopped innovating on all public fronts sometime around 2002 and factions developed which built weapons, vehicles and clothes from other, discarded items in the world. Because of this, the world looks like something between the 1800s and 2042, with modern weapons and clothes, combined with very intricately designed items.
