This mall isn't just a building; it's a survival ground for characters living in complex caste systems based on their status within the walls of consumer-driven capitalism. As a setting, an over-sized Mall of America style building served as a perfect battleground for humans on an Earth no longer hospitable to our species. I learned a ton about the world in the first issue without being overloaded with any information dumps, the smooth lettering by Jim Campbell never left me struggling to follow the intricate story. I can't wait to learn more regarding the protagonist Andre, especially his father's high status, connections, and how long he can survive being the mall's most wanted. As the story says, malls seem huge but become very small when they become war grounds between desperate people, as anyone who's camped out for Black Friday can attest.
