Plutona

Plutona, a 2017 one-shot from Futuropolis, is a standalone graphic novel that blends a coming-of-age story with a stark superhero tragedy. Written by Jeff Lemire and drawn by Emi Lenox, the book follows five suburban kids whose discovery of a dead superheroine’s body upends their world, forcing them to confront mortality and the cracks in their own lives. It matters for its intimate, human-scale take on the superhero genre, swapping caped spectacle for quiet, emotional devastation.
