Archipelago

(W) Martin Etxeberria, Xabier Etxeberria (A) Alex San Vincente

In the not-too-distant future, where climate change has ravaged the Earth, a young woman fights for her life, and her family, against pirates and political unrest, all while trying to hide her secret “special” ability.

Earth 2103 — A large part of the world is underwater. Global warming and the sudden acceleration of the melting of the poles have caused a sharp rise in sea level, in the form of Three Great Waves which arrived unexpectedly. These tsunamis not only flooded entire countries, but also wiped out telecommunications, agriculture, and energy production. Those who managed to survive must operate in a new and fragmented society of scarce resources — a dark age in which new powers emerge, such as the North African League, ready to conquer the part of Europe left on the water. It is there that Jare, a young woman with hidden powers who lives in the Basque Archipelago, will find herself unexpectedly plunged into a world of dangerous intrigue that seeks to disrupt old balances and create new alliances.

A Young Man Can See Into the Past in Broken Eye

Liverpool in the early 70s. Seamus Young is a young orphan of Irish descent. He has an eye that has been disfigured by a large scar, lives in a miserable apartment, works a awful job unloading garbage at the docks, and has no girlfriend.

However, as grim as this might seem, his situation will get much worse. Quite unexpectedly, he finds a dismembered hand floating in the river. Before long, he is immersed in a criminal conspiracy involving the IRA. And all this, because of a secret—Seamus has a broken eye, but it allows him to see into the past!

Broken Eye is written by Martin Etxeberria and Xabier Etxeberria with art by Iñaki Arenas, variant cover by Victor Santos, and edited by Lorenzo Molinari.
