A nerve-racking thriller from crime writer Christa Faust and blockbuster artist Mike Deodato Jr. (The Resistance, Infinity Wars). April Walters is a hit-and-run victim of life -- a middle-aged soccer mom whose inner fire has been snuffed out by her dreary suburban existence. When her teenaged daughter goes missing under mysterious circumstances, April embarks on a harrowing mission to find her; a journey that takes her through the underbelly of her suburban community and sets her on a collision course with a massive crime syndicate and its lethal matriarch. Tested to her limits and beyond, April discovers that hell hath no fury like a mother more
Another exciting debut issue from AWA studios, the concept is fresh, exciting and unique. With elements of Breaking Bad and Taken, it promises a whirlwind ride for the reader and addictive reading.

Nice start. Nothing super out of the ordinary when it comes to crime, but its done well and has some great action and writing to pair with it. Like the art by Deodato, I like how he draws people alot, dancing with shadow elements and faint pencilwork. Its fast, its brisk, its quick, but it will pull you in and doesn't waste any time in getting dirty and to the point. I feel bad for April our mom, she just wants to spent time with her family. A classic crime and very excited to see where this will be going. Looks like another hit from AWA Upshot.
-Builds a solid foundation for the story, nothing unbelievable. AWA has not disappointed me so far
