Comments: Exploring underground by three people starts this comic off with some mysteries. You are left with many questions. Then it jumps a year forward. We see the new kid just moved and the first day at school.
Toba has a weird start to his day. He does make a few new friends at school. Toba, Josue, Romy, and Mel decide to go exploring in the school and what they find is stunning.
There is something very strange going on here. Toba’s new town is definitely ground zero for weirdo stuff. You are not given much in the way of clues as to what is going on. You are left mostly to just imagine on your own which can be a good thing.
The art is nicely done having a slightly cartoonish style to it.
Toba is not Towba or Torba but Toba is not a happy boy. He does not like moving to this town. Why did they move, who knows? The story needs to give us a little information about what is going on to hold our interest.
Toba is your average boy just put into a situation he does not understand.
