review:
'The Lost City Explorers, Vol. 1' by Zack Kaplan with art by Alvaro Sarraseca seemed like an interesting premise when I read about it.

The prelude of the story follows an expedition as they uncover something strange and mysterious. One of the explorers gets taken and is presumed lost. We learn that he was the father of our main character and her brother. The company he worked for wants them to sign liability and collect lots of money, but Hel Coates begins to doubt her father is really dead. She assembles a ragtag bunch of friends to find out what really happened.

There are things I found a bit unbelievable about this story. I can usually shake those kinds of things off, but here, they nagged at me. It's pretty mediocre at best at this point in story and art, but it could improve. There are some interesting character interactions going on.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Aftershock Comics, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
