In issue 3 of Skin&Earth, Enaia Jin finds herself in a darkened state following a devastating romantic fallout. Still nursing her wounds while harboring a deep loneliness, she encounters a new and mysterious friend. The strange acquaintance seems to come into her life at just the right time. Does En finally have someone to share her borscht with? Will her desperation for companionship lead her down a dangerous path?
Written and drawn by alt-pop phenomenon Lights, Skin & Earth ties directly into her next full length album, released in Fall 2017 on Warner Bros Records.
Issue three is a visual spectacular, that has a great story with heart. Lights has created compelling characters that continue to grow. The end goal of Skin & Earth is beginning to take place. I can't wait to see how the story progresses from here. Read Full Review

I like a lot of aspects of it and what it presents is intriguing but it's still working to become a whole that I'm not sure will work or not. It's definitely worth the experience and trying to suss it all out, though, because it's not like most other books out there on the shelf. Read Full Review
Skin & Earth #3 is nice; it sets up the next stage in En's adventure though with such little information about Mitsuki and her rather creepy introduction the verdict is out where things will lead. This is clearly a labor of love from Lights. En looks exactly like her; she has a love of wine and crystals just like her creator. While you don't need to listen to the music tie-in, it is enjoyable and "Giants" in particular seems to refer to Mituski and was released way before this issue giving fans some hints. However, things in the comic need to pick up soon so the story can end in a satisfying manner. Read Full Review
