From writer Samuel Sattin and artist tokitokoro comes LYNX, Vol. 1 from VIZ Originals. Due out on August 11th, we have an exclusive look at the horrifying angels of LYNX and exclusive commentary from Samuel Sattin on these mysterious creatures.
Synopsis: "Lynx Takuma is standing still. As a bio-enhanced detective in New Borealis, one of the last habitable cities after worldwide climate disaster, Lynx knows what she’s meant to do: break up crime syndicates, track down rogue Qual technology, and keep the peace alongside her reckless-but-trusty partner Task and her crime-fighting talking cat Skua. But ever since Simone…
Well, she’s not thinking about Simone. Or about anything beyond getting through the next day, and the next, and the next…
Until, while on the trail of a series of grisly murders, Lynx sees something impossible that turns her world upside down—something that looks like an angel…"
Exclusive commentary from writer Samuel Sattin about the angels:
On the ever-snowy streets of New Borealis, VALO agents Lynx Takuma, her bioenhanced cat Skau, and her hyper-massochistic partner Task are confronted by creatures beyond their wildest imaginations. These Angels as they are called stalk the streets of New Borealis. The heaven they come from is far from benevolent.
Lynx, meanwhile, just wants to keep her adopted son Boro in school, even if he may have other plans. And the new mortician down at VALO is going to make a discovery that will turn all of their lives upside down.
