The comic opens far in the future on a scene in a village in the Rocky Mountains of Canada. Battle looms between the government & resistance & a mother hides her daughter in an underground bunker promising that she‘ll come back for her & if she doesn‘t, her daughter is to find & free the Axe. Fantastic worldbuilding,, intriguing premise, & complex characters make this a great 1st issue. I don‘t love the artwork but I‘ll definitely keep reading.
