AMD has a clever advertising campaign going on right now for their upcoming 8-core Desktop CPU in the form of an online Comic called “Operation Scorpius: The Legend of FX”.  The story of 8 heroes, a core of master ninjas, who come together to fight enemies in the OVerlord Syndicate and “free technology users everywhere”.  It even includes “Agent Ruby”, whose reputation for “graphic destruction” needs no introduction.

Available online as a downloadable PDF or online viewing in their flash widget.
