Clearwater

By Aaron Losty. Self Published. 

Softcover, 140 pages, B&W, 2024. 

Clearwater is an Irish crime drama set in the Dublin working class town of Finglas. We follow John "Mousey" Doyle as he attempts to navigate the doldrums of crime, violence and poverty he's trapped within. 

"I love Aaron's drawing style, it feels so expressive and raw and real. Reminds me a bit of one of my favourites, Jose Munoz. Aaron's work has a real personality and the worlds he creates feel totally unique from any other comics out there in the best way possible." - Jeff Lemire (Sweet Tooth, Black Hammer)

"A sincere work that asks for no sympathy, capturing the less palatable moments of growing up without hiding from them. I lose myself in the world Losty has built, a mixture of curiosity and nostalgia, desperately wanting more but afraid of what happens next." - Jordie Bellaire (Redlands, Nice House on the Lake)
