She Could Fly #1 Review Roundup

07/12/2018 5:17pm
She Could Fly #1 is the latest addition to Karen Berger's Berger Books line at Dark Horse Comics. Written by Christopher Cantwell, co-creator/showrunner of AMC's Halt and Catch Fire, She Could Fly is charming critics with its soaring concept and grounded storytelling. 

In Chicago, an unknown woman appears flying at speeds of 120 miles per hour and at heights reaching 2,000 feet. Then she suddenly dies in a fiery explosion mid-air. No one knows who she was, how she flew, or why. Luna, a disturbed 15-year-old girl becomes obsessed with learning everything about her while rumors and conspiracy theories roil. Will cracking the secrets of the Flying Woman's inner life lead to the liberation from her own troubled mind?
