G Willow Wilson and Chris Wildgoose's The Hunger and the Dusk (Vol 1) (June 2024 - ARC)

For a high-fantasy comic about humans, orcs, and climate change (and those driven mad by it), the art is really pretty: the colours! the beautiful landscapes! the clean action! 

I loved the hot orcs more than the humans (!?) which is not surprising as I feel like G Willow Wilson does too. Their side of the story, their characters, their history is so much more layered and interesting.

This first volume is definitely fascinating enough to hook me in for the long haul. Excited to see where they take it!
