Furthermore, just after the main characters includes take a wild trip there is a time and place setting textbox reading, "Somewhere beyond the ends of the Earth, beyond time, space and known reality. Unity day 1."

Furthermore, the first page includes a time and place setting textbox reading, "East Los Angeles, April 4, 1992. 9:40 P.M." so presumably it is April of 1992 AD during the prologue.
