Pluto

MINI-SERIES CONCLUSION With the kids torn apart and lost in the woods, nothing can prepare them for what happens next. The startling conclusion to PLUTONA, with an ending that no one will see coming!

Mie begins to suspect that one of her friends may have broken their pact to keep Plutona’s body a secret, but nothing can prepare her for what she finds next. The penultimate chapter in the breakout hit by JEFF LEMIRE and EMI LENOX.

Jeff Lemire and Emi Lenox’s “Plutona” #1 introduces readers to a new world where superheroes exist, but they are beginning to permeate daily existence, creeping into news reports on television and inspiring websites and chat groups. In this debut issue, there’s a mystery around super-powered beings that is prevalent from its early pages. The issue opens with close ups of a battered, bruised and broken body prone on the ground. A fly buzzes around, a leaf blows past. No words are needed to augment the somberness of the scene, as Lenox fills the four panels with just enough imagery to convey tragedy, through nothing over-the-top or hideously grotesque. From there, Lemire and crew introduce readers to five kids with disparate interests and personalities as they all set out on their way to school. Lemire uses their trip to school and the progression of the school day to define Mie, her brother Mike, Mie’s friend Diane, Teddy and his sometimes-tormentor Ray, a resident hoodlum-wannabe.
