I've been trying to get my hands on some single issues of this for AGES but every comic shop I go into is sold out (admittedly, I don't go into too many comic shops, but still). And I'm not super excited about digital comics yet so I was holding out for the trade. I loved the retro feeling sci-fi vibe of the art, and the story is fascinating so far. It's also hard to read in spots, and reminds me of the feelings that The Handmaid's Tale evokes. I really want to read more, so I may actually break down and start reading it digitally. Also I LOVE LOVE LOVE Penny the most.

Enjoyed the feminism, but overall, not my taste. Illustration was not appealing to me.
