While I respect the project of LaGuardia and agree with its overall message the story itself didn't really connect with me. The book is set in an alternate future where humans and aliens share the planet and Lagos has become an intergalactic Ellis Island of sorts as the first port aliens arrive to Earth from. Okorafor here discusses anti-immigrant sentiment through a literal alien lens. 

While the world Okorafor builds is interesting there wasn't enough space to tackle all the ideas she conceptualized. From a microscopic plant alien war, current tension between ethnic communities in Nigeria, our main character, Future's, pregnancy all while alien human relations are on a loudspeaker as the US bans all alien immigration. I wanted Okorafor to pair down and focus on a single thread to give it the depth and page-count it deserved.

Overall I think the comic had some fun moments, I especially liked Future's fierce immigration lawyer grandmother and the unique alien characters introduced. I could see Okorafor developing some of the ideas here well if she had more volumes to do so. However I don't think LaGuardia really lives up to the promise of its premise.
