What The Island of Giant Insects is
The wind snaps jungle vines as a student’s shoe snags a hanging wing. Eight teens stagger from misty jungle onto bloodied coral. The radio’s static keeps time. One girl’s field-guide becomes a shield against oversized hornets. Mosquito clouds rise with the tide. Like early 80s kaiju comics drawn on newsprint.
