Reviews

"The Last Day of Rain" continues to captivate with its blend of sci-fi elements and heartfelt storytelling. The environmental themes resonate deeply in our current climate, making the narrative both timely and thought-provoking. It‘s a beautifully crafted tale that merges environmental urgency with personal drama, making it a must-read for fans of sci-fi and environmentalism. And with two more volumes to go until the story ends, there‘s bound to be a twist or two to come.

An environmentally-focussed story with sci-fi overtones that communicates the urgency of climate change fears by taking us to a future where its impact has become all the more tangible. [...] With a number of dangling plot threads to tease the reader’s interest The Last Day of Rain will have a definite appeal to those looking for comics at SLCZF this Sunday that fit more readily into the genre fiction arena.

I don‘t know about you, but I am pluviophile. I love rain, I prefer it over sunshine, and it‘s absolutely terrifying to imagine a place without rain. The concept to be interesting, as well as the proposed solution the characters came up with, it‘s one I‘ve heard of before in real life, so I‘m curious to see it implemented in this Graphic Novel. I also love the fun character designs, and the drama right away with the data. It‘s a mystery, and I‘m all here for it! I‘m curious though, as the answer seems obvious, but it can‘t be THAT easy. I can‘t wait to see it unravel as we figure it out together. Great work!

Claudia’s artwork has an absolutely solid foundation in both form and colour. It’s really nice. It has a warm hand-drawn illustrative quality that you maybe find in a Nobrow or an Avery Hill book. Not synonymous with manga or an American superhero comic. I’ve seen great work throughout the comic.

This is the second part of Claudia Matosa‘s "The Last Day of Rain". Both parts of this are charming but at the same time dystopian. London in 2090 is destroyed and there’s no rain anymore, Carol, Pepper and Art struggle to lead normal lives but create the tech to create water. There are problems with water and power supply. There are also human problems of oversleeping, angry bosses and keeping down a job.
