Rachel Rising 1 - L'ombra Della Morte (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
This is the beginning of an intriguing tale. Rachel wakes up in the forest, and hitches a ride home. Her friends act as though she's changed, and she begins to realize that something has happened...I don't want to say much because I feel that the discoveries and discussions are best experienced alongside the characters as the story carries you along. The art is clean and sharp, not overly elaborate, but detailed enough to lend individuality to the characters. I appreciate the black and white aesthetic, it really fits the world.Worth reading. I'll be looking for volume 2 to see what happens next. Well, I'm hooked! The opening of the graphic novel has Rachel rising from her rather shallow grave in the woods. She doesn't remember dying, and is on a mission to figure it out. Along the way we meet a child that hits her sister with a frying pan and then puts saran wrap over her face and smothers her to death, and a guy in a bar that drops his fiancee from a five story building.It just gets weirder and more disturbing from there. I will definitely we reading more!
