    I'm loving the premise and the character development already. This massive catastrophic event switched something in Emmett and Gabby that made them grow in a matter of pages. Everything story wise is executed with a real sense of building to something even bigger, and that's exciting! Add on top of that artwork that gives off a feeling of familiarity and movement, and the colors to elevate that to an emotional response and we've got a real chance at something special developing!

    The Displaced #1 has a great concept about it. It sucks you in and makes you want to find out what's next for the story. So far, it's an intriguing mystery that's set up in a way that leaves a world of possibilities as to what really happened to the town and its people but it's the characters left that make the comic a must read.
