 ‘Upgrade Soul’ by Ezra Claytan Daniels is exclusive to ComicsPlus.
October is Halloween Month, the nights draw in and there’s a chill in the air. It is the perfect time to read a spooky story.
Upgrade Soul follows the story of Molly and Hank, an elderly couple, contemplating their mortality. They agree to be the first human subjects for an ethically and legally dubious new experiment to provide them with a new life span. Instead, the process goes awry, and they are confronted with severely disfigured yet intellectually and physically superior duplicates of themselves.
‘This wonderful mishmash of sci-fi and old tech is a fresh spin on Frankenstein and Flowers for Algernon’ read and loved by Hank.
ComicsPlus is a huge collection of comics and graphic novels available to download to a tablet or smartphone, or stream on a computer. Download the app from your favoured app store and log in with your library card number and PIN.
This month our quote is from Pumpkin Head by Rainbow Rowell.
