I have read several graphic novels so far this year & it is no exaggeration for me to say that this is my favorite so far. When Dr. Pembrook is sent to Cape Canaveral to evaluate decommissioned NASA equipment for military applications he discovers paperwork that appears to show discrepancies on the '59 Jupiter mission. With Sorrentino handling the artwork, it was absolutely fantastic, with some unique artistic approaches to a SF story.👇

vivastory This is like an extended xfiles episode with a lot of heart. At the core is a discussion over the kindness of Humanity with a capital H vs the personal small scale relationships that truly make a difference. (edited) 2y
vivastory Lemire is one of the more prolific gn creators at work and although I haven't read all of it, I'd have to say that this is one of his more underrated works. 2y

Loved this sci-fi meets Cold War thriller. This is a standalone series of just 6 issues from the team that created Gideon Falls.

This story brought tears to my eyes at the end. Three animals are trapped after being launched into space during the 60's. The space program lists them as dead, and yet one person refuses to give up on them.

A touching story with some suspenseful moments and excellent artwork.
