Chaykin brings just about everything to this comic that he's knownfor: carefully executed panel layouts, layered storytelling, a hunky leadcharacter, and -- right there on the opening pages -- plenty of fishnetstockings and leather teddies. Fraction brings the spark of an engaging idea andpeppers it with authentic dialogue amidst a cool setting, but it's Chaykin thatignites it and cooks the whole thing up with a flavor and feel that'sunmistakably his."-Comic BookResources"It'sa testament to Fraction and Chaykin's talents that a book spanning such anintricate series of storylines can keep us consistently interested and involved;the sense of forward momentum that this story has built up is impressive. At thesame time, the emotional dimension of this story can't be denied. "SatelliteSam" is about as much fun as you can have while feeling like you're seeingsomething you shouldn't, and one of the more involving, implicatingcomic-reading experiences to behad."-MultiversityComics |
