The Wake

A tense, aquatic sci-fi thriller from Editorial Televisa, The Wake (2015–2016) unfolds over ten issues as a deep-sea drilling team uncovers a primordial horror beneath the ocean floor. The series blends claustrophobic survival with speculative biology, its moody, atmospheric art and deliberate pacing building dread around an ancient, intelligent species awakened by human greed. Though a self-contained story, it stands out for its taut, character-driven exploration of first contact and ecological consequence.
