Even Matthew Battaglia’s gorgeous colors make the issue brighter with its neon hues. Vic Malhotra brought a grittier look to volume one and aided in making the noir aspects of the story stand out, while the first issue of “Clandestiny” has a more purely science fiction feel to it. The art for the both the first and second volumes is vastly different from one another. Dick and Ray Bradbury loom over everything–I would be remiss not to mention those masters. “Aliens” in its insanely cool visuals and slick storytelling and “Solaris” for its meditative approach to grief, reality, dreams, and longing. In “Clandesitiny”, I think you’re looking at a blend of “Aliens” and “Solaris”. Both have really salient things to say about human nature and who we are, as people–what makes us unique. In the first volume, “Anomalous”, I was definitely channeling Blade Runner and Dark City, both philosophically and visually. Michael Moreci: My influences are all over the map, to be honest. What genres and influences are evident in “Roche Limit: Clandestiny”?
What were your influences while writing “Roche Limit”? The first volume had a great blend of science fiction and noir and “Roche Limit: Clandestiny” is quite different from the first volume. Make sure you pick up a copy of “Roche Limit, Volume 1” and reserve a copy of “Roche Limit: Clandestiny”, which is released on May 6, from your local comic book shop.

Moreci was nice enough to let me interview him about the “Roche Limit,” its influences, and the amazing collaborators he gets to work with on the series. Titled “Roche Limit: Clandestiny,” the first issue takes a different direction and look, with volume one artist Vic Malhotra passing art duties on to Kyle Charles. Writer Michael Moreci follows up the first part of his “Roche Limit” trilogy, “Anomalous,” with volume two in May. Intriguing storytelling, gorgeous art, and dynamic colors made up a science fiction story that coaxed you into pondering deeper meanings while having a fun time.

“Roche Limit” was one of my favorite series of 2014 for good reason.
