review:
'Lady Mechanika: La Dama de la Muerte' by Joe Benitez and M. M. Chen finds herself in Mexico after suffering a loss, and finds a way to grieve and remember.
Lady Mechanika finds herself in a small village in Mexico on the verge of celebrating Dia de los Muertos. She learns the tradition from a family that has lost loved ones. She even dons some skeletal makeup even though her heart is breaking.
The celebration is cut short by Jinetes del Infierno, or Hell Riders, who hold the villages ransom and demand young children from villages that can't pay up. Lady Mechanika decides to do something about this injustice.
I've read a few volumes of this series and liked them, but it felt like things really clicked with this story. I loved the art and the story wasn't bad either. This was worth waiting for.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Benitez Productions, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
