As good as Orbital!

[Highland G · Rating 2 out of 5]

Started out interesting and I was really enjoying the art. Then I started to notice some bad English and it started to annoy me. Then things just kinda started to happen with little to no explanation or fallout. And finally they try and have an interesting twist but it falls completely flat due to the poor foundation, bad grammar and inevitable focus on coming to Earth, sigh.
Why cant characters stay in their fictional world! What was with the random quotes?
If more focus had been kept on the main characters overcoming issues on their own planet, it could have been so much more compelling.
Very disappointing.

I enjoy the art and the world building. The story is OK. It takes a few unexpected twists, to be sure. I like that it's a contained story. There's the possibility to do a follow-up, but not the need. This is the kind of thing I'd love to see turned into a season of an animated show, giving more time to flesh out some concepts and the characters. Sadly, non-comedy, non-anime, adult animation doesn't seem to do well in the States.

I like the art. The first issue didn't hook me, but the story was pretty good once we got into it. The ending felt a little rushed.

Sen is the last of her kind. Living with the Modians And being pursued for some reason by an artificial intelligence, she and her adoptive family encounter the Voyager probe and she begins having visions of a place called Earth.

Whilst underdeveloped in some areas, there is still enough here for a fun, compact read. The story does feel compressed by the format, but the art is lovely at times.
