- From the GLAAD Award-nominated team James Tynion IV (Dark Nights: The Casting, Detective Comics) and Eryk Donovan (Constantine: The Hellblazer) comes a new vision of humanity’s future in the vein of Black Mirror.
- When a plague ravages the world, one scientist discovers the cure and becomes the savior of mankind. Hope is restored, and the world rebuilds. But then people who took the cure begin having children who are… unnatural, and the definition of “normal” is forever altered.
My take:I can't say I've come across Eryk Donovan's work before, but I'm reminded (just slightly) of Nick Bradshaw's X-Men work. Conceptually, I'm all for new sci-fi comic books. The premise seems to fall under the umbrella of where Y: The Last Man and the film Children of Men lie. So it has my attention. I plan on reviewing this, so be on the lookout for that this week.
