On this community, I'm the one-man street team for
She Could Fly by former Marvel Studios intern
Christopher Cantwell and
Martin Morazzo. Halfway through reading #1 I could feel that it was a special book, and that feeling has only got stronger as I read more.
But don't just take my word for it...
AOK: There is no better medium to authentically portray the voice inside than literature. Sometimes we feel our inner monologue instead of hearing it. To convey it as prose allows for the reader to experience it on a level beyond a voiceover; sometimes to speak it is too concrete. To read it, as we read every other part of the story, allows us to be it. Christopher Cantwell has been it, hid it, exposed it. To tell this story well is to tell his story. You should be listening.
And nothing brings uncontrollable emotion across like watching others undergo it. Martin Morazzo’s cartoonish style is larger than life. I’ve compared his knack for capturing anxiety on par with Junji Ito, and She Could Fly allows him to depict disquiet with as much gravitas than any of his previous work to date. You should be watching.
Read She Could Fly because it is important, it is powerful, it takes ideas that are crucial to humanity—like fragility, like empathy—and does them right and true.Doom Rocket.
( Issue 2 - a summary )For me, She Could Fly is
about dying and wanting to die, and finding the things that make you not want to die, and it tells that story with a huge amount of heart
( And in issue #3 )
