Roche Limit #1 Written by Michael MoreciArt by Vic MalhotraColors by Jordan BoydPublished by Image Comics
There is a difference between a tired cliche and nodding to a book’s influences. Sure, there may not be any more original thought, but you can certainly be creative in the way you package those thoughts. From a glance at the front cover of Roche Limit #1; it is clear that this book wears its influences with pride. That is a Hickmanesque cover if there ever was one. More than any other book I have read, this book directly owes a debt to the way Hickman tells his independent stories. In design and with the computer readout spread of the layout of the colony in which the comic is set, Hickman’s revolutionary style watches over the progression.
Feel free to join in the fun.
Roche Limit #1 came out Sept 24 and can be bought at your local comic shop or at Comiology.
