Wasted Space Vol. 1
by Michael Moreci
This is a perfect example I'll use in the future when I say I can read a comic with not great art but a great story but I can't do the other way around.
And let me be fair and say I think it's the art style I just don't jive with. It has a weird sketchy, weird faces, lack of emotion that I just don't like. It doesn't help that the environments look rough as hell too. But this is by the same artist as "The Few" and I hated that one because I couldn't tell what the fuck was happening. This is an improvement.
But the story by Michael Moreci elevates this A LOT. This is a story of a man who has given up on just about everything. He once had everything since he was in touch with the prophet, and Billy here said he saw the future. However, when everything went to shit he kind of died away in the corner of the galaxy never to be seen again. That's until a girl comes into his life and can also see the future...things are about to get messy.
This is fun, chaotic, and zanny yet I loved almost every minute. Billy Bane is one likable asshole as is the rest of the cast. No one is perfect, and that makes it realistic, and super enjoyable. The pacing is quick, and at times though the wording can get long-winded, when it hits it works like magic.
I was really impressed with this volume and will be getting volume 2 for sure. Vault is kicking butt. A 4 out of 5.
