Description
A mysterious asteroid hosts a collection of strange creatures - man-animal hybrids, mythological creatures made flesh, guardian spirits, cursed shadows - and the humans who brought them to life. But this strange society exists in an uneasy truce, in the aftermath of uprisings seeking freedom and acceptance, that have only ended in tragedy. As the ambitious, the desperate and the hopeful inhabitants of the asteroid struggle to decide their shared fate, a force greater than either animal or human seems to be silently watching the conflict, waiting for either side to finally answer the question: what is worthy of being human?
EMMA RiOS (PRETTY DEADLY, ISLAND) and HWEI LIM (LALAGE, HERO) present MIRROR: THE MOUNTAIN, the first arc of a story about the mage-scientists of The Synchronia and the sentient animals of Irzah colony.

BOOK RIOT --Mirror
(Emma Rios and Hwei Lim) is one of the most
striking and beautiful comics I've read recently. The story of conflict between
mage-scientists and sentient animals is told with flashbacks to the past, so
while it takes a little bit to understand the unfolding story, you are always
learning more about the relationships and histories between characters.
Mirror explores familiar themes of bigotry, love, and identity, but what
sets it apart from other comics is the stunning, painterly, water color
artwork.
