    Cosmic Cadets: Contact is intended for middle-grade readers and may be a bit violent or scary for younger readers. Consequently, the book isnt really geared toward adults, however parents will certainly have something fun and worthwhile to share with their kids.Overall, Crane and Alves have merged their different storytelling techniques to craft a story that will resonate with readers of all ages and will leave new fans clamoring for the next installment.

    It would be easy to dismiss Cosmic Cadets as a kid-friendly take-off on a certain space franchise involving exploration. Certainly the idea of kids in space has been done before by other comics. Thankfully, Ben Crane's script is smarter than that and Mimi Alves' artwork is inventive. The colors by Priscilla Tramontano are also good. I personally found Cosmic Cadets to be the most enjoyable thing this side of Spaceman Spiff and it is 100% free of Wil Wheaton whining. Highly recommended! Read Full Review
