    Bloody Disgusting - Torin Chambers May 13, 2015

    Space Riders is a special beast, nothing else compares to its brand of fun. It's a visually impressive acid trip into a live wire space universe populated by incredibly developed characters. It's something that has been missing from comics. It's the 80's Saturday morning cartoon but pumped full of hallucinogenic awesomeness. It's pure gospel with 25 of the best pages you'll read in your life. Really, the greatest tragedy of all is that now its half over, but that last half of the ice cream bucket is always the best anyway. Read Full Review

    Nerds Unchained - Jeremy Radick May 14, 2015

    At this point, Space Riders is one of my favourite new books of the year, and though I will say it is absolutely not for everyone, if you can get behind its energy, you will not have more fun reading a comic than this. Read Full Review

    With a plethora of large, arresting panels and lightning-fast pacing, the issue is over before you know it. But as soon as you finish Space Riders #2, you're probably going to want to read it again. Please feel free to do so, and revel once more in its frenzied glory. I already have. Read Full Review

    Comics: The Gathering - stephengervais May 13, 2015

    This issue plays out like your wildest dream that you wish you hadn’t woken up from so soon. It’s so much fun to read and get lost in art. I hope everyone picks it up and supports a really one of kind adventure this creative team has put together. Read Full Review

    Comic Bastards - Steven E. Paugh May 13, 2015

    Space Riders #2 won't be for everyone, relegated mostly to those readers with a good sense of humor and childlike whimsy. Its second issue does have a few hiccups in that it jumps around at points with perhaps a bit too disordered an attention deficit, but it remains one of the single best forms of entertainment you could possibly spend money on this week.

    ComicWow!TV - Bhavna Bakshi Jul 27, 2015

    This issue serves as a great next step for Captain Peligro and his crew. They all keep getting into a lot of trouble, though, so it will be interesting to see them get their missions completed. This series really is a good one, so I definitely recommend reading the reprinted issues of this great book. Read Full Review
