From 2014.
The subject of girls being kidnapped in Mexican cities was something I read for the first time in Roberto Bolano's masterpiece 2666. The subject in general has been featured in Liam Neeson's popular film series Taken.
Ciudad the comic book...doesn't seem to have learned much from either.
It's not bad, and maybe in some sense it may even helpfully simplify things, for anyone who still doesn't know much about the subject and happens to have come across this comic book by way of introduction.
That's another way of saying, this is not a piercing study of the problem, nor is it a cool action vehicle. It's all kind of generic. Maybe it improves in further issues. Although based on this debut, I have no interest in finding out.
That being said, maybe it works better for you. Who knows?
