The Last Mermaid is a
post-apocalyptic adventure that is perfect for fans of lush,
animation-style artwork like that of Isola, Low, and classic
Miyazaki.A lone mermaid roams an endless wasteland on a quest
beyond reason. To press ever onward, she must survive the
interminable stretches between tiny pockets of water, roaming bands
of cybernetic cannibals, and fearsome mutant beasts. What propels
her forward to take such a risk? And who is that cloaked figure
watching her from afar...? Eisner, Harvey and Ignatz Award-winning
writer/artist Derek Kirk Kim's first graphic novel in a decade
kicks off an epic journey-a literal fish-out-of-water story that
will turn the post-apocalyptic genre on its
ear.
