END OF STORY ARC! "LOST IN THE WILDS OF HEAVEN," Conclusion-On a mysterious lost moon, Kadyn begins to unlock the secrets of the strange war club of the Gods that's become a part of him. Meanwhile, has his imprisoned father Gil finally given up all hope? The hit sci-fi series concludes its first story arc!
I love Stephen Greene's art in this issue. Besides all of the beautifully detailed landscapes, Greene does a brilliant job with the character designs. The way that Kadyn is drawn in an almost animation style that makes him standout from the gritty surroundings is awesome. Read Full Review
Sea of Stars is a book about the strength of a father and son's relationship across the stars. It's amazing how in so few issues the book has made you care about these two and seeing them reunite. The setting only makes this journey even more intense. That's only due to Stephen Green painting the vastness and beauty of space along with the emotion of this epic. The end of Sea of Stars #5 leaves you wanting more. Aaron and Hallum cutting us off before the reader gets just what we want from the story shows they know damn well what they are doing.

Sea of Stars #5 was another brilliant read from this creative team. I know that this issue concludes the end of the first plot arc. But it still feels like there's still so much more to Gil and Kadyn's tale. The real question is"how far are they going to push this new boundary? And of course, there's always the question of how long the authors want to keep writing. Here's hoping we get several more issues before the end. Read Full Review
Kadyn and his father get so very, very close to connecting this issue. With all that's happened since they parted ways in the first issue, it's nice to see them get this close together, but it's beginning to become apparent that Aaron and Hallum are determined to keep them apart. This could get to be a bit annoying as the series continues, but for now, it feels like an excellent dynamic to keep the two heroes apart in an issue that closes the beginning of the series.

While it might be for the best that this story seems to be reaching a conclusion of sorts, it's too bad that the journey wasn't better considered. Read Full Review
THE GOOD:
-A solid end to the story arc.
-I love this art. It's simple, but striking.
-It's nice to see the two stories converge. It looks like that's not the end of the story though. I'm fine with that.
-I love all these characters.
-The shaman character took a dark turn.
-The action was a lot of fun here.
THE BAD:
-The story didn't quite interest me as much here.
-The end was pretty abrupt. It was a pretty good cliffhanger though.
This is a fun story that I don't think should've ended on a cliffhanger...
