An intense YA that discusses racism and police brutality in a sci-fi, futuristic setting AND follows the story of Frankenstein. WHAT?! This is a powerful read, with characters whose rage just digs into your heart.

Highly recommended.

“As I write this I wonder which seems more fantastical: that a woman could bring her dead son back to life, or that a country might ever hold itself accountable for injustices it has perpetrated”

I took a wee while to get into it and nearly DNF’d in the middle of the second issue. I think it was due to it being written in a way unlike other graphic novels I’ve read. Didn’t really know what the hell was going on and didn’t see the significant. I’m very glad I kept at it
