Low continues to enthral. Volume two: Before the dawn burns us collecting issues 7-10, sees Stel continuing her mission to the surface in pursuit of hope fulfilled, a returned probe to an Earth running out of time. Her optimism tried, though intact. With Stel the others who'd escaped Rolns' arena, a motley crew, all with pasts of their own. Rick Remender's one hell of a writer creating a believable world, a scenario with strong echoes of our own and interesting nuanced characters you get invested in; and as for Greg Tocchini art, well, it continues to be something else, dynamic and expressive lines bringing Remenders' world to life vividly, in a lovely rich palette capturing the mood of different environments perfectly. A graphic where you battle between hanging on a page for the art and turning it for the story. A great read.
