High Water, a New Zealand Comic Anthology
New Zealanders are, I think, a little more environmentally conscious than the rest of us. I guess living amidst such majestic nature, it's inevitable. So perhaps it makes sense for this comic anthology's theme to be climate change. As you may imagine, that doesn't make the tone very cheerful, and each artist's contribution is focused on what might happen after the temperatures and the seas rise. Like most anthologies it allows you to see the style of many artists at once. Like most anthologies also, most stories are frustratingly short. So while I enjoyed it, it left me wanting for more developed stories from most of these talented artists.
