The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of MEDISIN #1 from Action Lab Studios’ Danger Zone imprint. Jeff Dyer and Mark McKeon
write, David Brame draws, Joaquin Pereyra colors, and Adam Wollet letters.
Where do supervillains go for health care? One named Malady
has figured it out. He recruited the best and brightest in the medical field,
and makes them work for him on pain of death. And his services allow him to
control the world’s supervillains. But one of the doctors, Ethan, is a little
different. And maybe, just maybe, he can figure a way out of this mess.
Character development is a big part of any good story, and
this book does it very well. There are lots of characters here that we get to
know, even down to the hospital AI. And the puzzle that is Malady and the
contract is a daunting one, building the stakes of the story. The art really
gives us a sense of the destruction in this world, both personal and property.
This is a clever twist on the concept of what happens after
the action. It’s dark and it’s serious, and it has a story with a lot of
promise. I’m eager to see where it takes us.
MEDISIN #1 is available now from your local comic shop, or
online at actionlabcomics.com.
