Black Nerd Problems - Chris Aiken
Oct 03, 2019One thing that sets this issue apart from the others is the addition of the Zzazteks. The world of Sea of Stars has been mostly been a wild space of creatures and emptiness. This is the first time we are introduced to an actual society of people, opening up the world in new ways. Both Gil and Kadyn have different experiences with the Zzazteks, but it gives the reader some clues into what this group is all about. The introduction of this group also gives us a few revelations about Kadyn's situation that are sure to give us some eyeopening issues ahead. Read Full Review

You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
Oct 02, 2019Pulpy space adventure isnt anything new, but Aaron and Hallum are doing a great job of bringing the adventure across in a very well-executed series that brings hauls the rarely-explored demographics of a middle-aged father and a grade school-aged son into the danger. The long-term viability of a story that splits father and son the way Sea of Stars has in its first four issues might begin to feel weak if the Aaron and Hallum are going to maintain the separation between father and son indefinitely into the future, but for now, its a solidly enjoyable book.

ComicBook.com - Chase Magnett
Oct 02, 2019It's possible to have it both ways with a mix of sci-fi and fantasy tropes blended in a single spacefaring story; most of us have read Saga already. Sea of Stars never makes an effort to have its two very different stories feel like a coherent whole, however. Read Full Review

I really like this run. It's well written and fun. My only concern is it's going to stall like the goddamned and southern bastards. I don't want to invest my time and money on a OTHER comic that doesn't have an ending. Regardless of how good it is.

THE GOOD: -I'm really enjoying this series. It's quite a lot of fun. -Dalla is a pretty cliche character, but her moment with Kadyn was actually really heartfelt. -Once again, Gil is really the best character. His monologue towards the end was really, really good. -Kyle is such a lovable security bot. -The action here is fluid and fun. -Monkey and Dolphin are wonderful side characters. Their dialogue and commentary just makes the Kadyn storyline that much more fun. THE BAD: -I think this series would really benefit from being simpler. I think it works best as the story of a father and a son separated in space. The Zazztek lore and whatnot... doesn't really interest me.
