It’s spooky when you float underwater, near death. It’s The Girl In The Bay, from Dark Horse’s Berger imprint.
Written by J. M. DeMatteis with art by Corin Howell, (coloured by James Devlin), The Girl in the Bay is about Kathy, the rebellious teenager who wouldn’t stay home. It’s spring of 1969 in Brooklyn NY. Life with her friends is too good to be true. Unfortunately, Kathy is brutally attacked one night and gets thrown into the nearby bay. When she emerges, miraculously not drowned, she discovers that 50 years have passed!
It’s a whole new world for Kathy, as she starts to retrace her teenage steps, looking up family and friends.
The story is an interesting one; we’ve seen this trope before of course; someone who transports themselves in time and realizes how much has changed. A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, for example. But The Girl In The Bay is well written, and not a simple plot.
Artwork is capable enough, as Corin Howell gets her drawing chops tuned up. Her older people need a little study perhaps, and her kids are a bit cartoony, but all in all, it’s a moody, well executed first issue!

Corin Howell is female, so those pronouns shouldn’t be male. Thanks!
