Graphic novel, 160 pages
English language
Published Oct. 12, 2012 by Image Comics.
The sweeping tale of one young family fighting to find their place in the worlds. When two soldiers from opposite sides of a never-ending galactic war fall in love, they risk everything to bring a fragile new life into a dangerous old universe. Fantasy and science fiction are wed like never before in a sexy, subversive drama for adults.
One of the worst plot wise but with some great 5 star moments.
This was recommended to me (and I did like Y The Last Man) but it's definitely closer to the fantasy genre with it's multiple planets, creatures and inventions. So not really my jam. Except:
the hook is it's framed as a universal new parenting story AND the way that theme is layered over the battles and other-worldly plot points is quite creative. so I like well enough and I'll give it a go.
My library only had the first volume, which I loved. Hopefully they will pick up other volumes. Great fantastical characters/creatures. The dialog was a little too cute, but it went along with the general feel of the story of just being fun to read.
Wonderful.
