Nuclear Power #4 And One Of The Greatest Covers Of All-Time


Nuclear Power #4
Writers: Desirée Proctor and Erica Harrell
Artist & Letterer: Lynne Yoshii
Ages: 18+

I love Nuclear Power. It's that simple. There are so many moments when a story comes along and you notice parallels within the real world and it can be startling. The creators of Nuclear Power do not disappoint in Issue 4 as intense sequences elevate the fact that consequences come at times, whether we're ready for them or not.

One of the reasons I love this series falls upon the shoulders of this beautifully illustrated cover. It's amazing. The scene; flames, sparks flying, and her screams belting out into the world, pain weeping down her face. On a more personal note, this cover is how I feel on the inside. As soon as I initially saw it, I felt it.

It's not easy to discuss my emotions, but this cover depicts my swirling mass of feelings in a way that I can admit unapologetically that this is me. It is rare for me to see something and have such a profound connection to it. That's the magic of the comic book medium, and after the past year and a half of a pandemic and the despair of everything wrong with the world, this cover, and this story, are brilliant.

I highly encourage everyone to take a look at this series. 

Nuclear Power #4 is available on Hoopla and ComiXology. Plus, there are perks to pre-ordering the trade paperback. Pre-order the entire trade paperback now, and if you do so by August 1, 2021, you'll receive "exclusive signed prints of the single issue covers, as well as an Issue #1 variant cover, signed by the creative team."

First Review In For IMAGINING RACHEL And It's 5 Stars!


My New Book And My First Review 

I am super happy to share that my new romance book, Imagining Rachel, is out in the world; plus, it already has a review! I am quite pleased with the feedback I've gotten on this story so far, and getting a review helps a lot.

For anyone who has taken the time to already purchase my book - THANK YOU!! If it is at all possible, I would love it if you'd share your thoughts in a review. I want to do whatever I can to move Imagining Rachel up the ranking within its genre category. The more people share, the more opportunities for it to be bought (and hopefully reviewed), and that helps to get the needle moving.

If you are able to, please share the book's link on your social media channels or you can follow me on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram and simply RT my own (pinned) posts. Again, to everyone who has liked, shared, bought, and to the first person who wrote a review, thank you so much for helping me make some noise for Imagining Rachel.

If this is the first time you're hearing about my new book, Rachel is a quirky character who finds herself unable to control her imagination, daydreaming about a professor, leaving her zoned out in the middle of a work day with her boss asking if she's okay. It's a little rom, a little com, and I can't wait for you to read this story and the characters I'm proud to say I created.

Check out the first review for Imagining Rachel!! Who wants to be the second person to write a review?
