The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of A VOICE IN THE DARK #1 from Image Comics. Larime Taylor writes and draws.
Zoey wants to start a new life. She has something she wants
to run from, but she’s responsible enough to know how silly and dramatic that
would be. She also has something strange going on inside her, though she seems
to have it under control. Mostly. What she really wants to do is host a radio
talk show, and it looks like her new college is going to let her do that.
Zoey is a very interesting character, certainly interesting
enough to make this story work. Her internal narration tells us a lot, and she
has done a very bad thing for arguably a very good reason. But it still haunts
her, and she wants to use that to help others. There’s a great deal of depth in
the character, and Taylor
packs a ton of story into this issue. The art is clean and straightforward, and
the black & white suits it well.
If you’re into character-driven stories, this is a really
nicely constructed book. I can’t wait to see if we’re going to learn more about
what’s in Zoey’s head.
A VOICE IN THE DARK #1 is available now at your FLCS and online
at imagecomics.com.
