Odessa is a dystopian graphic novel following three siblings of Vietnamese descent on a journey through post-apocalyptic California in search of their mother. Eight years ago, a massive earthquake destroyed the East Coast of the United States, toppling cities and changing landscapes.

It was okay. I really wanted to love this story, however, it was just okay. The characters were okay. The side quests were okay. The art is okay. I did not feel invested enough to care about what was happening.

Furthermore, I was off the impression that Odessa would be a standalone story but it is not. Because I was expecting the story to wrap up, especially during the last chapters I wondered whether their mother would just pop up or if this graphic novel would indeed have a sequel.
