From legendary actor Samuel L. Jackson and Emmy nominated writer/producer Eric Calderon, the team that brought you the Emmy-award-winning Afro Samurai comes the second issue of their new original series - Cold Space. When Mulberry, an on-the-run outlaw, crash lands on a hostile planet and gets caught in the crossfire, he finds an opportunity to make a deal and make some money! Covers by Dave Johnson and Jeffrey Spokes.
I'll be honest here, I just love this comic! It's not a sweeping epic tale, the creators aren't looking to revolutionize the comic industry, but it looks good, it's got some great wit and it's just pure fun to read. Is there a little cheesiness? Sure, but who cares? I just want to see Samuel L Jackson shooting suckers in space and dropping one-liners while he does it. If you haven't been reading Cold Space yet, you'd be doing yourself a favor to start soon. Read Full Review
If you are looking for a story where Samuel L. Jackson works the local yokels, as a guy you wouldn't want to run into in a dark alley, set on a distant world, then Cold Space is for you. For me, everything seems just a tad too familiar, and that might just hurt the series in the end. While the characters are well defined, there are just a few too many moments where the pace seems to drag. Cold Space #2 is worth the read, and earns 3.5 out of 5 Stars. Read Full Review
