Mermaid Project #1

The opening episode of Mermaid Project arrives from Cinebook with a striking cover that sets an intriguing, slightly surreal tone — a young woman perches casually on a balcony railing while the Eiffel Tower looms large and warm-hued behind her, its familiar iron lattice filling a narrow Parisian street in an almost dreamlike way. Fred Simon's artwork blends the recognizable with the uncanny, grounding this sci-fi-tinged series in a beautifully rendered cityscape that feels just a little off-kilter. A fine entry point into what promises to be a visually ambitious European adventure.
