Fishbones Maintains Quality with New Lead Artist
March 3, 2017
While it’s only a simple webcomic series and novel, Fishbones surely offers a reader an offer they cannot and will not refuse. With realistic scenarios and absolutely chilling events, Fishbones pulls readers in with Jisuk Co’s writing and the art styles of both Isko Kabristante and Yuki O.
Characters have quite the interesting personalities and background, with almost endless numbers of different characters to immerse yourself with as you go through and read the very interesting story of Ferris and his relatives’ “business.”
The story takes place in the fictional city of Southport 1999, where loyalty, family, and the wavering crime families all go hand and hand. We follow a young teen by the name of Ferris Levinstein and his apparent close cousin Demos Giogeretti.
Ferris prefers the quiet life rather than what his family is involved in, but that doesn’t stop him from getting dragged into some chilling and very terrifying scenarios.
Fishbones is similier to another webcomic called Bite Me, since Ferris is unwillingly dragged into sequences and scenarios he would rather not wish to become involved in This is the same as the protagonist of Bite Me.
On top of all that, this webcomic handles its mafia-involved scenarios quite realistically and in a very interesting storytelling format that doesn’t get boring, generic, or over the top. The way the writing is handled is just at the right spot.
Even with the original artist, Yuki, leaving the comic and having an all new artist animate the comic for Jisuk Cho, the webcomic is well on its way to entertain many. This webcomic won’t be swimming with the fishes any time soon.
