So now there is no more internet, no more smart phones, and everyone uses masks and fake names to hide who they are. This came about after “the cloud” burst 60 years ago and exposed everyone’s deepest and darkest secrets.
The story is a hardboiled detective story merged with a dystopian future in which everyone has a secret identity. I ended up not loving it as much as Saga, but I really enjoyed it. I’ve read the first four volumes of Saga and I love it a lot, so when I saw this on Netgalley I couldn’t resist. You might recognize the author as the author of Saga, which is a well known sci-fi graphic novel series. The Private Eye is a series of ten issues that, as far as I understand it, were originally posted online but has now been published in hardback. This review was written for the Dystopia Reading Challenge.
I received a free ebook copy from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Genres: Adult, Graphic Novel, Mystery, Crime, Dystopia Published by Image Comics in December 2015 Stay tuned.The Private Eye (Deluxe Edition)by Brian K. Vaughan has been teasing an expansion of the Panel Syndicate tem for a while, and in his email he noted:Īnd we’re also excited to say that we’ve just received the first issue of our NEXT new series at Panel Syndicate, by a very surprising creator we’ll be announcing soon. Given that there are NO MIDDLE men for The Private Eye, that’s six figures of pure profit for well deserving creators. It’s all because of small contributions from readers around the world, so sincere thanks again for your coverage of our ongoing experiment. Even though readers can still pay whatever they want for our DRM-free files (including nothing!), artist Marcos Martin, colorist Muntsa Vicente and I are proud to reveal that The Private Eye is already well into the six figures for both issues downloaded AND dollars earned… and that’s without advertising, corporate backers, Comixology-like distributors, or even a Kickstarter campaign.
