My No Flying No Tights review.

European stuff and nonsense. In a post-apocalypse world, a couple of telepaths are on the run/pursuing a vague quest that takes them from their island refuge to the mainland and back. Nothing much of importance occurs, but there is some fan service -- topless women and up-skirt shots for pantyhose fetishists -- if that's what you're wanting. ( )

Manuele Fior brinda al lector una fábula sobre la capacidad de los más jóvenes para solucionar los problemas del viejo mundo en esta obra que se sitúa en un presente alternativo, diferente y al mismo tiempo similar al nuestro. Una gran invasión, llegada del mar, ha diezmado a la humanidad, de la que algunos han escapado encontrando refugio en una pequeña isla de piedra construida hace más de mil años y conocida como Celestia, una hermana gemela de Venecia que bebe de las creaciones de Miyazaki. Dora y Pierrot, los protagonistas de esta historia, se adentrarán en los límites de la laguna para descubrir el mundo que los rodea: una zona en plena metamorfosis habitada por una sociedad en la que los niños cuidan de los pocos adultos supervivientes.

Pierrot and Dora are telepaths who live on the nearly empty island of Celestia, a stone fortress where some people took refuge when a great sea invasion came to the mainland. Pierrot's father has gathered some other telepaths into a group; he says that their thoughts are their own but telepathy belongs to the group; Pierrot resists. He and Dora leave Celestia briefly, meeting others and exploring the hospital where Pierrot's mother used to work; he has visions of a bridge blowing up, his mother being killed. People help Pierrot and Dora return to Celestia. Though there is some resolution, Pierrot is clearly suffering from childhood trauma, and Dora seems traumatized as well.

Much of the story is told in the images in the panels, though there is text (some dialogue and some captions). I'm not sure I gleaned all the meaning there was on the page; it is a strange, dreamy story, cinematic; there is a lot of nudity. ( )
