Vampires are red hot retired supermodel gingers apparently too. That's what Emily Briggs, the founder and chief executive of Looker modeling agency is. She wasn't supposed to be turned, but was by an apparently lazy one night stand conquest of hers. Emily was pretty much a selfish ass in her former life though...pretty much like most supermodels are, also apparently, but her new predicament has softened her up a little bit though. Trying to save her agency's young models from being the bitch that she was, and from making the mistakes she made, Emily especially takes an interest in the goings on behind two of her models going suddenly missing...she eventually tracks down what happened to them and the monster (literally) behind their disappearances.
Like
National Comics: Eternity,
National Comics: Looker is the kind of comic book story that DC Comics needs more of. Excellently written and paced by Ian Edginton and beautifully and captivatingly brought to life by Mike S. Miller, the story of one of DC Comics older and near forgotten characters is given a new lease on life that should be explored more fully in a monthly title.
Reading more like a pilot for a new TV show would run,
National Comics: Looker sets up a great premise and builds a story world populated with interesting and well developed characters that is just ripe with potential. I say that when DC Comics cancels a few more more poor New 52 sellers they give
Looker and
Eternity a chance. I, for one, would be a monthly reader of these characters brought to life by these creative teams.
