Kingdom (comics)

Kingdom is a comic series created by Dan Abnett and Richard Elson and published in 2000 AD starting in 2006.

The story revolves around a genetically modified dog named after Gene Hackman. A sequel The Promised Land (2007–2008) tells the story of Gene Hackman's encounter with a community of humans living in a compound which they call the Promised Land.

Plot

Kingdom centres on Gene the Hackman, a genetically modified dog, who is fighting an enemy known only as 'Them'. In the beginning Gene travels, constantly on patrol with the pack, an army that fights Them and follows the orders off a voice in their heads known as the urgings. Gene and his army encounter a myserious "Land Bridge" which inexplicaply seems to be made of earth hanging in the air. They conclude that "Them" created the bridge to invade other lands. They follow the bridge, but Gene's pack wants to go home and report to the "masters" presumed to be humans but later revealed to be mere robot servants. Soon the urgings disappear and the oldest member of the army Old Man Gary has no recollection of being without the voices. This causes conflict and the pack members who do not abandon Gene are eventually killed.

Succession (geology)

In geology a succession is series of strata or rock units in chronological order. Rock successions can be seen in cross-sections through rock, for example in a road cutting or cliff. With sedimentary layers of rocks, newer units will be above older units.

Ecological succession

Ecological succession is the observed process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time. The time scale can be decades (for example, after a wildfire), or even millions of years after a mass extinction.

The community begins with relatively few pioneering plants and animals and develops through increasing complexity until it becomes stable or self-perpetuating as a climax community. The ʺengineʺ of succession, the cause of ecosystem change, is the impact of established species upon their own environments. A consequence of living is the sometimes subtle and sometimes overt alteration of one's own environment.

It is a phenomenon or process by which an ecological community undergoes more or less orderly and predictable changes following a disturbance or the initial colonization of a new habitat. Succession may be initiated either by formation of new, unoccupied habitat, such as from a lava flow or a severe landslide, or by some form of disturbance of a community, such as from a fire, severe windthrow, or logging. Succession that begins in new habitats, uninfluenced by pre-existing communities is called primary succession, whereas succession that follows disruption of a pre-existing community is called secondary succession.
