Review Roche Limit #1


There's nothing quite like three special little words to get a girl's heart fluttering -- mystery in space.

Image Comics has cranked out a few seedy mystery titles, and it's no wonder that noir fans are happy campers these days. Noir has moved well past the standard private eye stories of the past (although those are still plenty of fun) and branched out into other corners of the bookstore. Most notably, science fiction-based titles laced with dark mystery have been well received. You have only to look at The Fuse and Letter 44 for proof.



Writer Michael Moreci and artist Vic Malhotra have teamed up for the latest mystery in space, and you'll either dig it or not. Mystery junkies won't be able to resist, space fans will be onboard, but people who just jump on bandwagons of the buzzworthy need not apply.

I reviewed the first issue for the guys at Broken Frontier, and you can read it HERE.
