Emma Rios and Hwei Lim Reflect on 'Mirror'
A few weeks saw the release of Mirror, a new miniseries from the creative team of Emma Rios and Hwei Lim. A standalone narrative set in the shared sci-fi/fantasy universe of 8house, Mirror sees the duo collaborating in new and leftfield ways to tell a story that stands apart from anything else on the shelf. Rios, best known as the artist on Pretty Deadly, here writes for Lim, with Lim bringing her unique and wonderful style to the mad characters and world of the story. That collaboration is key to the series, and the pair keep the readers surprised with each new turn of the page. They even switch out at certain points, with Lim writing while Rios provides pencils. Mirror is an incredibly crafted and intricate series that elevates both of its creators, and may change the way you look at Image. Along with Island and the rest of 8house, Mirror represents a shift into new and experimental waters. ComicsAlliance was lucky enough to get to speak to both Rios and Lim about their collaboration.
