Whiteout, Vol. 1, Definitive Edition
"Carrie Stetko. . . is a believable character with  compelling flaws, understandable motivations, and is given a clear voice by  Rucka. . .the look and feel of this book is dead on. . .a must read."  --The Comics Journal"Carrie's Dirty Harry and we... are on the edge of our seats. . .And if  the last three pages don't break your heart even as they make you smile,  then your soul is made of ice. Bravo, Mr.'s Lieber and Rucka. Now please go  make more." --Artbomb"A stark, gripping little graphic novel, with wonderful art by Steve  Lieber (one of my favorite artists ever since his run on Hawkman, back when  the Winged Avenger was written by John Ostrander). The Antarctic setting is  used as nicely here as in John Carpenter's The Thing, creating a sense of  bleakness and hopelessness that pervades the rest of the tale. The sequel,Whiteout: Melt, is even more intense, although not really a  whodunit; it's basically a spy story with Carrie stuck in the middle of  things (Lilly is long gone). It's all but impossible to put down."  --Chud(Cinematic Happenings Under Development)". . .works wonderfully well. Rucka creates some real three-dimensional  characters. . . The murder plot unfolds at a nice pace, details all come  together in the end, and there's still room for character development."  --Comic Book Resources"Wonderful characterisation and dense plotting with plenty of twists in  the tale are complemented by an impressive range of artwork by Steve  Lieber." --Sequential Tart"Greg Rucka's knows crime so well, I'd be afraid to spend time alone  with him. He has to have a record as long as my arm to tell stories with  such realism at such ease. . . Steve Lieber may not be familiar to a lot of  readers, but his work on this title is nothing short of absolute greatness.  When you deal with a location which is nothing but snow and ice, save for  the base and the people inhabiting it, there's a lot of pressure to make it  visually appealing and Lieber does than and then some. He is able to show  the claustrophobic atmosphere and desolate landscape in equal measure.  Aside from having a great story and a not often seen setting, the duo add  unique element by making the two main protagonists female. Marshall Carrie  Stetko and special agent Lily Sharpe (who is currently seen in Rucka's  ongoing Queen and Country series through Oni Press) are more than great  female leads. They're two of the most completely realized and believable  characters that you'll find in any! comic book story. This is as unique a  comic story as you can find and one that certainly belongs in any fans  `required reading' list. Whiteout, and the equally intelligent and  entertaining sequel, Whiteout Melt, are both available in Trade Paperback  format." -Ain't it Cool News
