SS Season 1A little torn on what I think of the premise， but I really liked the characters。 Definitely want to read at least the next volume

Fun， high-octane action with great character development and plenty of intrigue。 The art， colors， and lettering are pitch perfect--bright， vibrant， playful， and kinetic。 It gave me Tellos and Battle Chasers vibes， which is a very good thing in my book。

This is a fun sci-fi action romp that kind of feels like it came out of somebody's really good homebrew RPG。 The Stone Star is a roving arena ship with an entire town within it big enough for there to be an underclass and folks hiding in the cracks。 What follows is an adventure as a kid with powers finds himself pulled into the world of gladiators， crime gangs and the other machinations that make life on this ship so dangerous。 The story doesn't break much new ground and often feels rather famil This is a fun sci-fi action romp that kind of feels like it came out of somebody's really good homebrew RPG。 The Stone Star is a roving arena ship with an entire town within it big enough for there to be an underclass and folks hiding in the cracks。 What follows is an adventure as a kid with powers finds himself pulled into the world of gladiators， crime gangs and the other machinations that make life on this ship so dangerous。 The story doesn't break much new ground and often feels rather familiar， but the artwork is very fun， the designs are solid， and the overall effort is just too much fun to look at too critically。 。。。more

Original HitI love this title。 It was a fun adventure with a great setting and interesting characters。 I can't wait to read more。 For some reason， it reminds me of Battlechasers， in a really good way。 Can't wait to find out what happens next。 Original HitI love this title。 It was a fun adventure with a great setting and interesting characters。 I can't wait to read more。 For some reason， it reminds me of Battlechasers， in a really good way。 Can't wait to find out what happens next。 。。。more

This is a fun space gladiator story， which feels a lot like a sanitised kids version of something that might be told in a clippier， edgier way in 2000AD。 And considering 2000AD is for kids that means there is little edge to this， it seems squarely aimed at everyone。 And a space orphan with a "secret power"， a space princess， an old crochety mentor and some robots？ The art from Max Dunbar is great though， that sweet spot between cartoon and detail， there is a nice play between background and fore This is a fun space gladiator story， which feels a lot like a sanitised kids version of something that might be told in a clippier， edgier way in 2000AD。 And considering 2000AD is for kids that means there is little edge to this， it seems squarely aimed at everyone。 And a space orphan with a "secret power"， a space princess， an old crochety mentor and some robots？ The art from Max Dunbar is great though， that sweet spot between cartoon and detail， there is a nice play between background and foreground and the character work， and not very alien aliens is solid。 But a tale of a space travelling gladiatorial arena leans on a lot of second hand tropes， and a shockingly low body count for the premise。 There are plenty of places it can develop， and was a solid read， but could do with being weirder。 。。。more

A solid， all-ages tale of a young boy with the power to control machines。 He's gets sucked into the same gladiatorial games as his late father by circumstance。 This isn't bad at all。 It had the feeling of a new sci-fi cartoon。 A solid， all-ages tale of a young boy with the power to control machines。 He's gets sucked into the same gladiatorial games as his late father by circumstance。 This isn't bad at all。 It had the feeling of a new sci-fi cartoon。 。。。more

This is a read for someone looking for an old fashioned pulp sci fi feel。 Which， for me， I do count among my guilty pleasures。 Even if this appears to be headed for a space opera/gladiator mashup down the road， and gladiators are meh for me。 Stone Star is the name of the massive starship that bring goods and entertainment to planets。 Its biggest show is a gladiatorial show， with of course fights to the death。 Dail's father was once a star in said show， before events take place that force Dail in This is a read for someone looking for an old fashioned pulp sci fi feel。 Which， for me， I do count among my guilty pleasures。 Even if this appears to be headed for a space opera/gladiator mashup down the road， and gladiators are meh for me。 Stone Star is the name of the massive starship that bring goods and entertainment to planets。 Its biggest show is a gladiatorial show， with of course fights to the death。 Dail's father was once a star in said show， before events take place that force Dail into becoming a scavenger。The characters are interesting enough， Vail and the refugees， and there may be more to Grandoise than we're led to believe from this initial entry。Fun， not great but fun。 。。。more
