2. Lazarus
Are you a Game of Thrones fan? How about a lover of dystopian sci-fi? Oh really? Then boy do I have a comic for you.
Greg Rucka and Michael Lark’s Lazarus was the book I read the fastest this year. Every time I finished a volume I headed back to the comic book store to buy the next one. Rucka and Lark are both masters of their crafts, and the work on this series really shows that fact.
The plot: in the near future, the world has fallen into chaos, with the various continents being divided up between several rich and powerful families. But because modern rich people are kinda weak and pampered, one member of each family is given intense combat and weapons training, cybernetics and biological enhancements, and – best of all – medical treatment. They are designated as the Lazarus.
The series centers on the designated Lazarus of the Carlyle family, Forever Carlyle. As she comes to terms with who she is, and navigates the complex political atmosphere around her, Forever serves as a great tour guide to the world of Lazarus. A fantastic and addicting series with a kickass protagonist and an amazing creative team, Lazarus is something you NEED to read.
