It may come as no surprise that her doll, Vespertine, has a lot to say.Īddison's clandestine visits to this Lovecraftian city are chillingly familiar. While Lexa managed to escape the spill, she hasn't spoken since the day of the accident. There's another mystery surrounding Addison's younger sister, Lexa, and her Raggedy Anne doll that has, quite literally, a life of her own.

Initially hesitant, Addison does what any struggling millennial will do when faced with a ridiculous sum of money she says 'screw it,' accepts the offer, and bikes into the heart of the spill, going inside the very building where her parents were working the night of the accident. The collector offers Addison a million dollars if she's willing to go into the spill zone and retrieve a device from a hospital deep in the meltdown. These pictures eventually land in the hands of a collector, who sets out to find the daredevil willing to break into the contaminated city. Spill Zone is a graphic novel that follows Addison and Lexa Merrit, a pair of sisters orphaned by the accident, as Addison makes secret, nocturnal trips into the spill zone to take pictures. The government fenced off the entire city and placed troopers along Route 9D to keep everyone out of the meltdown area.

Three years ago, an unexplained event turned Poughkeepsie into a contaminated nuclear site of monumental proportions.
