When 17-year-old Liz Wynter goes to sleep, commercials play in her head. When she wakes up, she checks out how many people followed her dreams and how many saw them.
It's the future. When she feels special, a voice in her head tells her: "5.4 Billion+ had the same feeling in the last 4 seconds. Would you like to know who they are?"
How can you feel special when everything's been done before, been felt before, been thought of before? How can you be special if there are so many people in the galaxy that every day three more are born with your DNA?
This is the story of Liz Wynter. She's not special.
Wynter #1 is a strong read that is a hyperbole of society today; people have become so involved with technology. When last have you seen a kid playing in a park? This story takes the fact that technology has become such a major part of our life and it shows you just how dangerous living without life can be. What is there to live for when you already know how you life plays out? At least that is what Liz thought before her life changed in the blink of an eye. Read Full Review
Oh my god yes. If you call yourself a science fiction fan this shouldn't be required reading but necessary for you to exist. It captures a world very much possible and it does it by keeping your attention and making it all very vivid and real. Pick this book up and become the most interesting guy at the party with a very intelligent and fascinating read. Read Full Review
I loved this debut issue and can easily state this is a book you MUST pick up next week. Unfortunately it appears like it will be adigital only release " but you can pick it up on iTunes this Wednesday. I highly recommend taking a chance on a new publisher and an independent series. Hasson and Elekes have come up an awesome concept and executed it as perfectly as a comics fan could ask. Great stuff! Overall 10 out of 10. Read Full Review

Liz herself is more or less your average teenager; dejected, rebellious and searching for more meaning to her life than she feels is offered to her by her society. Like I said, typical teenager. It's this emotional familiarity that keeps Wynter from spiraling to far into left field and makes it not only readable, but enjoyable. Read Full Review
Wynter #1 is by no means a terrible book, its got a really cool hook, but its pacing issues along with some hard to decipher art keep it from being better than average. Read Full Review
Do you love Cyberpunk? Then you should probably give Wynter #1 a go. It hits a lot of the beats readers have come to expect from the genre, though not always with the most finesse. This issue is cheaper than your average comic book and, for the most part, it looks good. If this genre is outside of your typical comic book reading Im not sure Wynter #1 is the best place to jump in for a lot of the reasons I just stated. Read Full Review
