Select praise for PLUTONA:
“Plutona
is the kind of character driven tale that we’ve all come to love Jeff
Lemire for, but the real star here is the beautifully drawn pages by Emi
Lenox. Her cartooning crafts a world I can feel by just looking at it.
We’re lucky to have Jeff and Emi making books like this.“ —Skottie Young
“Like the very best comics, Plutona
transcends any single genre. At once a gripping mystery, an epic
superhero tale, and a deeply affecting coming-of-age story, Plutona
presents Lemire and Lenox at the height of their powers—a masterful
meditation on heroism, identity, and growing up. One of the best books
of the year.” —Scott Snyder
"Plutona
is your new favorite comic. As heartfelt and beautiful as any of
Lemire's previous works, and the artwork from Emi Lenox is like a breath
of fresh air." —Nerdist
"A cool, effortlessly inviting coming-of-age tale filled with realized characters, a compelling mystery." —IGN
"Epic, intelligent, full of heart." —Comics Alliance
"Plutona will make you feel like a kid again." —Vox.com

"A contemporary, super-powered take on Stand By Me
brought to life with expressive, nuanced art from Emi Lenox... The kind
of emotionally complex story that makes you want to cry for no
discernable reason. Pick it up and try not to drip salty tears on the
pages." —Paste Magazine
