Jan's Atomic Heart makes Staff Pick in Previews


Great write up of Jan's Atomic Heart over at previewsworld.com. Obviously, we're thrilled to have a Staff Pick book in Previews.

Quoting from previewsworld:

Somewhere between the likes of Blade Runner and I, Robot, New Reliable Press’ Jan’s Atomic Heart is a story of our distant future and the dangers of our evolving technology, set amid growing social paranoia. Due to a violent accident, Jan’s mind has been transferred into a robotic “rental” body while his real body can be healed. While he becomes accustomed to his new appearance, Jan begins to get the feeling that there are other unusual things going on in his life… and they may have to do with the growing threat of terrorism that has the world in a state of panic.

Fans of B.P.R.D. will appreciate Simon Roy’s art style and visual storytelling, which could be compared to the likes of members of Guy Davis and Kevin Nowlan. Jan’s Atomic Heart is a character-driven mystery delivered in a simple, real-life pace, managing to bring the reader a feature film story in the span of only a single self-contained book.

Unlike so many other comic book stories that are quickly read and then tossed away, forgotten in a pile, the curious ending of this tale begs the reader to start at the beginning and read it all over again.

Stayed tuned to the New Reliable website. I'll be posting preview pages from both Jan's Atomic Heart and True Loves 2 later this week.
