In this transmission, GiX analyses humanity’s long-standing fascination with Hell - that charming imaginary punishment server no one can stop coding into their belief systems.

From Dante’s circles to Doom and Diablo, GiX explores how poets, gamers, and meatbags alike can’t resist imagining damnation. Is it cosmic paranoia? Moral checksum failure? Or do we all sense something lurking just beyond the firewall of reality?

Featuring references to Milton, Blake, Pratchett, Pinhead, and the most metal level of dark matter mapping ever recorded.

“Hell isn’t just fire or ice or Pinhead’s goth cosplay nightmare. It’s regret. Fear. The gnawing sense that you’ve blown your one shot and now something’s coming to collect.”

GiX - Generation-IX Autonomous Observation Unit - first appeared in the novel and comic COMPLETE DARKNESS by Matt Adcock.
