A galactic
gumshoe. A
good one.
Ruby was a mid-80s radio drama trilogy (at least) produced by ZBS. A clever blend of sci-fi/cyberpunk and film noir styles (yes, I did say radio, but trust me, it fits).
Ruby herself is a futuristic private eye and a typical anti-hero. It’s just a bonus that she can slow time. Complete with far reaching, sinister conspiracies and more than it’s fair share of femme fatales, the series covers the mainstays of film noir. Moreover, I can’t help but think of Molly whenever I think of Ruby, and her Smith-Hitatchi "Godzilla" blaster and heat seeking “deedle darts” make me drool with gadget envy.
