Story By- Lang, Lapinski, &
Mangun This new series is ripped right out of the
real-life drama unfolding on the Mexico-Arizona border! FEEDING GROUND reaches a
large and diverse audience no matter your personal point of view on the issue.
In this factious story, a famine caused by Blackwell Industries drives Diego
Busqueda, a noble coyote, to lead a band of Mexican border crossers across the
unforgiving Devils Highway, a desert cursed with blistering days and deadly
nights. Back home, Diegos daughter Flaca discovers that something hungrier
prowls the factory fields. Stalked and persecuted, can the Busqueda family
maintain their dreams of immigration or will the horrors of the desert tear them
apart?
Feeding Ground issue 6 of 6 is
a Hispanic werewolf horror drama that delivers. Flaca is forced to choose
between her father and Alejandro Blackwell the head of Blackwell Industries. Her
mother and brother have struggles of their own as they try to find a place in
the United
States. Young Flaca finds herself over taken by
her hunger and it leads to some very intense violence and action. The
illustrations and coloring are both beautiful and terrifying. Simultaneously the
border patrol invades the Blackwell Industries compound, followed by more action
blood and gore. There is no shortage of twists, turns, action, and horror in
this final issue. Its a well thought out storyline combined with beautiful art.
Archaia does a great job
bringing this book together. The issue can also be flipped and on the other side
is a full length very of the issue in Spanish. This is genius on their part. I
cant say enough about what Archaia does for the comic book industry as a whole
and this is just another example of their innovation.
