This is an unexpectedly good short story from Rat Queens author Kurtis J Wiebe. At only four issues it isn’t around for long but does manage to tell a pleasing tale and build a sense of place. With echoes of Wasteland and Freakangels this post disaster missive is mostly a dialogue between pairs of characters. It doesn’t degenerate into talking heads and there are a great deal of mute panels for the action.

The art is distinctive with rough lines that perfectly embody a post-disaster future. The colour palette is most reminiscent of Great Pacific.

Thumbs Up!
