This may well be the final countdown for humanity as a mutated monster stalks across what is left of the decimated Earth and a cult of trash worshippers prepare for the end times. Travis, his fellow garbage men, and the love of his life, Cassandra, are the last line of defense…but will they be enough? And is the Earth worth trying to defend?

Don't Spit in the Wind #1

One man’s trash is another man’s living. Since earth became inhospitable, humanity escaped ages ago to live in a space station floating above the atmosphere. Now Travis and his crew of garbage men are tasked with cleaning up mountains of toxic waste, working for a company called Atomic Bros INC., to create a ‘Clear World’. But when one of Travis’ crew members goes missing near an old nuclear facility Travis’ job becomes a bit more complicated. Don’t Spit in the Wind #1 is an intriguing start that feels part parody and part horror.

Written by Stefano Cardoselli, Don’t Spit in the Wind #1 feels like an interesting mix of genres. There’s the obvious sci-fi aspect to it but there’s also a hint at parody and even horror. The comic has a style that’s intriguing overall and an ending that’ll suck you in and say wtf as you want to find out more.

The world is destroyed with the unenviable and likely impossible task of trying to clean it up left to a few. There’s a bit of Wall-E in there except instead of sadness we’re left with workers who feel like they’d fit more in Office Space. They’re a bit grumpy and overall negative about their job, there for the paycheck. All of that is mixed in with what transpires as a crew goes missing and we get to explore more of the world. It’s all a slow build as we discover more and more about this world.

Cardoselli does double duty also handling the art with Dan Lee. All together, it’s an excellent combo, especially at the ending. The art has amazing detail reminding me of Simon Bisely’s work on Lobo in the 90s and would feel right at home with Heavy Metal, an exaggerated world where every inch is put to use. Then you get to the end and this junk world gets more claustrophobic as greater danger is revealed. It’s a fantastic build in the art where no detail is spared.

Don’t Spit in the Wind #1 is an intriguing start to the series that’s a visual treat and concept that should pay off well. Despite it’s sci-fi setting there’s a lot to relate to and a lot to chew on, leaving us excited to see what’s next.

Find out what folks think below, and what comics you should be looking out for this week.

Action Comics #1053 (DC Comics) – The series has been fantastic so far making Superman really feel like a “family” of heroes.

The Ambassadors #1 (Image Comics) – Mark Millar’s newest series with Frank Quitely. The concept sounds interesting where people explain why they should be one of six people in the world to get powers. Part of the bigger picture for Millarworld and the upcoming event, we’re intrigued.

American Born Chinese (First Second) – If you haven’t had a chance to read this modern classic by Gene Luen Yang, here’s your chance before the new Disney+ series.

Bulls of Beacon Hill #3 (AfterShock) – The series has been solid so far and we’re intrigued to see how Christopher Boldt will deal with the attack on him by his father.

Don’t Spit in the Wind #1 (Mad Cave Studios) – A cleaning crew member goes missing near an old nuclear facility.

Dungeons & Dragons Saturday Morning Adventures #1 (IDW Publishing) – IDW’s “Saturday Morning” comics have been fantastic capturing the fun of the original animated series.

Fist of the North Star Vol. 8 (VIZ Media) – Kenshiro takes on the Holy Emperor Souther, the most powerful of the Six Holy Fists of the South Star. Hell yes!

Heavy Bright (Fantagraphics) – A queer young woman aims to dispel the greed and cruel masculine energy that has consumed the world.

Local Man #2 (Image Comics) – The first issue about a washout superhero was fantastic and we’re excited for what’s next in this series that’s an homage, spoof, and celebration of Image’s superheroes.

Unstoppable Doom Patrol #1 (DC Comics) – The next steps for the team was hinted at in Lazarus Planet and this series seems like it’ll deal with the aftermath of that event.

Waller vs. Wildstorm #1 (DC Comics/DC Black Label) – We’re so pumped to see national security expert Spencer Ackerman take on writing Waller!
