Wednesday Worlds of Wonder / CoronaVirus Comics SERAPHIM 26661336 WINGS

For our final (for now) "diseased future world" posting...

....we offer a most unusual manga by two masters of anime...Ghost in the Shell’s Mamoru Oshii and Perfect Blue’s Satoshi Kon, who wrote and illustrated Seraphim 266613336 Wings, the story of a future dystopic Earth devastated by the “Angel Plague,” a pandemic that induces apocalyptic visions in the afflicted, even as it ossifies their bodies into angelic-looking forms, complete with wings!
The graphic novel is the first chapter of a never-completed mini-series, due to creative differences which the untimely passing of Satoshi Ken kept from ever being resolved.
Nonetheless, it's a fascinating look at incredibly-detailed world-building and, since this volume ends on a cliffhanger, it leaves many loose ends and unexplained aspects that the creators obviously planned to explain, there's lots of things to speculate about (which I feel is the hallmark of successful storytelling)!
