Satellite Falling #1 (IDW)



We have very cool looking satellite with 100 species & 75,000 beings on board. Lilly is a bounty hunter posing as a cab driver. She longs for her girlfriend who died some 2 years earlier on earth. So she came to the outpost to get away from her memories as there aren't many humans on the satellite.

She is hired to by the police department to catch some illegal slaves employed in a work house. The chief a shape shifting dude who makes himself look like a alien babe convinces her to take on the operation.
Using advanced camouflage tech Lilly see's a kid in pain crying that is shackled with chains she loses it & compromises the operation, The chief yells to her to get out now!

Sweet artwork by Stephen Thompson (some Boom studios & DC work) Written by Steve Horton (Dark Horse work) has given us a great sci-fi book, Hope it stays this good. Think Transmetropolitan & The Fifth Element. Only problem is it's way too short a read, Seems to be a disappointing attribute these days.

Rating: 8/10.
