Lady Mechanika Vol. 4: Clockwork Assassin by Joe Benitez and M. M. Chen ~ A Review

by MK French

A series of brutal murders seems to link back to Mr. Lewis, as the victims are former coworkers. Detective Inspector Singh has to evaluate if Lady Mechanika is a hero or a cold-blooded killer, as she seems to be one of the few people physically capable of slicing people in half.

Lady Mechanika vol 4
June 2018; Benitez Productions

graphic novel, fantasy
The art is just as good as prior volumes, and this is a very tightly wound story that doesn't rely overly much on knowing a lot about prior events. There is one asterisk on one panel which refers back to a prior volume, but it doesn't slow down the reading or enjoyment of the story in the slightest.

This volume is more of a straightforward murder mystery, with only the barest of hints of an overarching conspiracy. That makes it a very quick read so that you can take your time and enjoy the steampunk art and the additional cover designs that are included in the back of the book.
