Roche Limit comes alive in a dystopian, yet very much alive, manner. His style is appropriate for a science fiction story that, like “Aliens”, requires the reader to enjoy spectacle while also empathizing with the characters. Fires burn, space ships crash, and even the inside of a spacecraft have lived-in nooks and crannies that seem fit to burst with stories of exploration and the people who have tirelessly lived on and worked within its metal walls. Where the first volume had moments of suspense and a subdued simplicity within Vic Malhotra’s art, Charles’ art in this first issue exudes a feeling of both that same dread but with an added sense of heightened energy on every page. With the addition of a superb artistic team, “Roche Limit: Clandestiny” #1 is a solid first issue. With added elements such as back matter that illuminates the past of a possible antagonist to veiling his words just enough to entice us, Moreci has written a tightly woven script that feels both natural and well-thought out. Moreci has created a unique world and it is evidenced by the characters’ dialogue, the allusions to past events yet to be revealed, and the promise of Roche Limit’s shocking future. ![]() The splash page toward the beginning with her standing tall on Roche Limit while holding a big gun is rendered pretty impressively by Charles. Like Ripley, she has a complex mixture of both moments of introspection (as witnessed above) and pure heroic bravery. ![]() Moreci has also introduced a heroine in Sasha who is reminiscent of Ripley from “Aliens”. ![]() Tears stream down her face, with the reader not knowing why this crew is out to inspect a colony that now appears devoid of any living thing. Sasha, an explorer, watches a video message from her family that is over two years old. Moreci has succeeded in introducing us to characters with psychological scars and demons that are just brimming beneath the surface of their being. Besides astounding visuals, the reader must become invested in the characters. There are some essential ingredients to concocting an effective sci-fi story. Moreci is upending expectations and that’s what great science fiction (and stories in general) must do in order to be successful and effective. The back matter in the book’s last pages highlight the fact that events are about to get much more strange than what we have seen in the rest of the issue. Science fiction elements are more pronounced, with artist Kyle Charles and colorist Matt Battaglia contributing to this tale’s vastly differently look. Unlike the previous Roche Limit tale, however, “Roche Limit: Clandestiny” #1 builds toward a cliffhanger that reveals a story that is extremely different tonally when compared to volume one. Though time has jumped forward by many years and different characters are involved, Moreci clearly has a plan to tie together stories of a world he has transferred from imagination to the page with his talented collaborators. This group of space explorers are far from home and encounter strange and hostile things that can’t be explained. We are introduced to a space crew that are on a mission to discover what has happened to the Roche Limit colony. Like the previous series, there is a heightened sense of suspense and mystery that lurks in every panel. There’s a vast difference between the first volume and the first issue of the second volume of “Roche Limit”. With danger lurking all around, the crew members fight to find a way off the planet and resist the mysterious presence that haunts them all. When a crew of military and science personnel are sent to the forgotten and desolate planet on a mysterious expedition, they quickly learn its dark secrets-and that their mission is not what they thought it to be.
