Habitat Review

Habitat. Roy Simon. 2016. Image Comics. 96 pages.

Rating: 4/5

My favorite part of this book has to be the art. The Meso-American setting combined with sci-fi elements is fantastic. It's sort of like reading a futuristic story about the Mayans. The illustrations of the people leave a little to be desired though. They feel more like sketches than completed images. The style makes them stand out from the rest of the art, but it wasn't too distracting.

Although there some questions that aren't addressed, I enjoyed the story quite a bit. I kept wanting to see what would happen next. The setting helped make it compelling. This is a bit different than other comics out there, and it's worth picking up for that reason alone.
