The New World
The New World #1
The United States of America—after the Second Civil War. Two lovers meet. a straight-edge vegan hacker anarchist boy with a penchant for messing with the State. The a chaotic, hedonistic cop with a reality TV show and a license to kill. This really shouldn't happen—and yet, somehow, it does. And soon, the entire state of New California is after them. This ballistic sci-fi action romance miniseries—in the vein of Mad Max and Romeo and Juliet—from ALEŠ KOT, TRADD MOORE, and HEATHER MOORE begins with a massive-sized debut issue, and features a backup comic introducing the talents of AARON STEWART-AHN and SUNANDO C!

More of the same themes from Kot but with a totally different and unexpected art style. The backup story was great.

An intriguing world. It is set just far enough in the future to not be now, but close enough that the present of 2018 still echoes (ominously, in my opinion) in that future.
I enjoyed exploring the world through this issue. As often happens, #1 ended with a bit of a twist. And, as also often happens, that leaves me unsure what that means for the title: How will the twist change the tone and feel of the title? And that question is unanswerable, at least until I get to read #2!
