Colonia #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis second volume of the Colonia series continues the story of a human colony struggling to survive on a distant, hostile world. Written and illustrated by Ben Templesmith, this trade paperback collects issues #4-6 of the original comic series, deepening the tension as the colonists push further into the uncharted wilderness. Templesmith's signature moody art style amplifies the sense of isolation and danger in this sci-fi survival tale.
In "And Not a Drop to Drink," Jeff Nicholson crafts a quietly intense narrative set against the stark backdrop of the Pacific Northwest, where the weight of isolation and forgotten histories presses in. With a grounded, atmospheric tone, the story unfolds through a series of evocative references—books on naval lore, ancient maps, and distant voyages—hinting at deeper currents beneath the surface. The issue's stark, moody visuals, fully realized by Nicholson on both interior and cover, mirror the story’s brooding mood, making this a standout in the Colonia series.
