Nudnawe.

Ario Anindito & Pierluigi Cosolino did an amazing job on the covers. I also love the variant covers by Dan Mora and Ethan Young.

The story opened up on this issue whilst the first was a great foundation, issue two delves deeper into Eve's mission and how the earth came to be as it currently is.

Second Issue Does Not Disappoint

I really like that we get a back story to what happened and what caused the world to be what it is in this universe. And Wexler is an awesome side kick.

Oh, my. Now, there are zombie-like creatures and her father is in space!!!

[Gerin Moblo · Rating 5 out of 5]

Still like it. Going more slowly, but sort of starting to answer more questions. Definitely interested in more.

[Rebekah · Rating 1 out of 5]

Oh, I thought this book was aimed at tweens, but nope!! I'd say at least 16+, preferably 18+. Zombies ruin a story, in my opinion, especially when we see all their guts everywhere, and begin attacking a child.
I was hoping for a fun adventure in a post-apocalypse world, but we got the predictable virus that turned everyone into cannibals kind of story.

CW:
-lang - Jeez, b*stard
-really creepy, grey, emaciated humans with no pupils, zombie kind of people who start attacking her
-an illustration of a body with his rib cage and internal organs all bursting out of him
-references to cannibalism

I'm a little confused about the time line, but I'm very interested.

[San Frazier · Rating 5 out of 5]

Why is this so good!! I am so happy about the diversity and beauty of the art and the story line. Girl versus the world!

[Brandon · Rating 3 out of 5]

this is a little better at giving some background and world building but it's just too short and it's not fair to the story that it barely gets a chance to find its legs.

[Aryanna Tunstall · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was an amazing graphic novel about humanity’s last hope taking the form of a pint size little girl who has spent her whole life training for one thing

[Larissa Cezana · Rating 3 out of 5]

Achei um pouco apressado entre uma issue e outra. Uns elementos que não estava esperando. A trama começa a se desenvolver [?]...
Não é nada surpreendente, pode ser apenas mais um dos clichês pós-apocalípticos, mas vamos acompanhar e ver no que dá.
Confesso que gosto do robô, porque claramente lembra o Teddy de A.I., justamente por ser um urso.
