The mermaid and her only companion-a tiny axolotl named Lottie-are thrust into peril once again when they encounter a fearsome water beast looking for its next meal. Things get more complicated when a mysterious stranger enters the fray. Is he friend or foe?
Look, I'm not out here throwing out 10's just because I like it or because I may be obsessed with this series. The Last Mermaid is riveting, beautiful storytelling. Derek Kirk Kim has pulled inspiration from so many different mediums (Comic-books, anime, manga, animation) and created his own amazing piece of art that feels so new and yet familiar. I am on the edge of my seat while reading, while also being in awe of the imagery of each panel. It feels so cinematic. I wish it would run for a hundred issues, but I know this best stories have an end. I can't wait to read issue 4 and you should hop on it while you still can! Read Full Review

This is story telling on a level that I haven't seen since my childhood when obsessed with Tom and Jerry. Every single panel tells a bit if the story and as sparce as the words are they bring a level of intensity to the action. This is extremely addictive to read as I adore art and ant artist that can bring to life a story is a genius in my book.
They should have let this guy make his TV show. What would have been solid TV is a mediocre comic, but you have to respect the effort.
