Image Comics Story & Art: Luana Vecchio English Adaption: Edward Caio
In Lovesick #2, Luana Vecchio strikes a perfect balance between dark humor and truly depraved. Her characters are smooth and round, and there’s a pretty, glossy filter over every page. Domino and her girls pose with groovy, dramatic flair, giving the book the feel of a 60s musical at times. But there is far darker imagery, such as Domino idling in a tub full of red, with a mutilated body hanging over the water. Another page depicts the killer dominatrix as a demon capable of destroying the world. The interpolation of this soulless carnage with the lighter BDSM fare is effectively unnerving. Vecchio makes so many delicious color choices, from the pink-tinted dance floors of the opening pages to the gory red wash of Domino’s demonic turn.
