Uber scribe and author of comics such as The Wicked and the Divine, Three, Star Wars: Darth Vader, and Phonogram, Kieron Gillen has a brand new comic book out in shops right now. Mercury Heat #1 is the beginning of a new ongoing space opera that tells the story of Luiza, a 
young woman that wants to be a police officer but because of an aberrant neuro-profile becomes a space bounty hunter. Sounds like an upgrade, yes? No – this isn’t a promotion. It is a life among the miserable and criminal on a planet that could either boil you alive or freeze you solid if you don’t stay on the horizon of the sun.
Mercury Heat is everything you expect from Kieron rolled into a sharp Avatar Press package. It’s a violent and powerful story that will leave you wanting more. Make sure you stop by your local comic book shop to check out this new series!
