The book's overall impact continues to have its own unique appeal, from the weird door-like legal-sized aspect ratio of the pages to the fact that those pages are printed on high-quality poster stock. It's a very classy package for action-based comic book adventures. Even the weakest stuff in the volume feels powerful given the print quality of the book. Individual issues of the Space Bastards series are available at comic shops courtesy of Humanoids. The Volume 2 Hardcover is available for backers of the series on Kickstarter. Read Full Review

Space Bastards #1 is a lot of fun. That fun is squarely in its violence. It's such a simple concept but takes such pleasure in the violence. It takes it and amps it up to 11.
