Black Science, Vol. 1

This morning I finished off the first volume of Image Comics Black Science (How To Fall Forever). It's one of those exemplary pieces of graphic novel sci-fi that dumps you right into the story and reveals pieces of the whole the further you venture. As one reviewer put it, there's no "plot armor" at work - meaning, no character is safe from total obliteration. I tend to gravitate towards stories like that because there really is more on the line when your main protagonist could eat it at any moment.

Beyond the story, it's also drawn incredibly well and covers a lot of different worlds - so there's plenty of crazy aliens and alternate worlds. Kind of like Sliders but minus all of the cheesy aspects - so, nothing like Sliders.
