This monster boy’s parts in particular also mean mega bucks for her, and Nita is now faced with a big decision: abide her mother or choose the moral high ground. Usually the monsters are dead when Nita gets them for dissection, but when her mother brings home a living specimen the girl is overwhelmed with sympathy, something her mother won’t tolerate. Our protagonist, Nita, is torn between what is morally right (even when dealing with monsters) and what her emotionally abusive mother wants. Nita doesn’t have much of a choice in the matter, especially when her mother uses psychological warfare to manipulate her daughter into doing what she’s told.īased on the first installment of the critically acclaimed young adult series Market of Monsters by Rebecca Schaeffer, the comic is written and adapted by Stephen Lamm, and introduces a universe of supernatural beings living alongside humans and a sordid underworld where their magical bodies are worth thousands, if not millions. Unfortunately for her, it’s her mother’s business and the woman takes great pleasure in making money off magical organs, appendages, and more. In Not Even Bones, Nita doesn’t really want to hunt and dissect supernatural beings so that their parts can be sold on the black market.
