Skin and Earth #1

Dynamite Ent

Lights


This looked interesting so I bought it. Then I found out that “Lights” is a band and that this is their comic book precursor to one of their albums. I started regretting immediately as I have not had any luck with band related comic book offerings, and yes, I’m including that one guy that writes a lot of popular comics. With that caveat out of the way I must admit I completely enjoyed this book. In a future where industrialism runs the city and the workers become toxic En, a woman from the toxic Pink Zone, is studying in the city where her kid are treated as lepers. There’s a potential love story here and a heavy environmental stance but really well thought out, paced, and illustrated. Hope the rest of the series is as good.
