In a future world ruled by dueling megacorporations, where drinking the wrong brand of coffee can irrevocably alter the course of your life, an errant space ship crashes near the bustling metropolis. After discovering some very unusual cargo from the ship, company scientists quickly develop a plan to destroy the competition once and for all. Tapping a nameless office worker to infiltrate the enemy, things go awry almost immediately, resulting in consequences great and small. With a keen eye for the absurd and unsettling, this wordless debut pokes fun at sci-fi tropes as it infuses the proceedings with sharp observation and pointed social commentary. Relying on a limited palette dominated by pink, blue, and grey paired with clean, bold outlines ensures readers have no problems deciphering the multilayered story. Varela skillfully uses clearly delineated, sequential panels of varied sizes and shapes to enhance key elements of the story and employs some clever visuals to add interest. Sophisticated but easily accessible, this visually engaging story will find wide readership. - Booklist
