review:
'Miss October 1: Playmates 1961' by Stephen Desberg with art by Alain Queireix is a graphic novel about a serial killer with an agenda.

Viktor Scott survives an attack and attempted rape, but loses her hearing. Her father buys off the police to avoid scandal. Viktor turns to a life as a cat burglar. Meanwhile, a serial killer has started leaving beautiful, but bloody bodies lying around with references to monthly Playboy centerfolds.

It's a first volume and only 50 pages so there is a lot of story development that starts but doesn't finish. What is here is interesting, but left me wanting more. Perhaps that was the point. The art is stylish and befits the era the story takes place in.

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