(4/5 ★★★★☆)
"Picking up right where Mythspace #0 left off;
After years of thinking his Lola was a loon,
Ambrosio "Bros" Magkalas has been abducted by...
a mecha driving Nuno and a gun-toting
Manananggal?! Faced with the realization
that his Lola's tale of what happened to his parents
may not be a delusion, Bros is determined to seek
the truth... but outside Earth, humans have no rights,
And Bros is about to learn this the hard way..."
The Plot:
Aboard the Battleship of Akkatizatizamon, Grand Aegis of the Ymos City Protectorate, a presentation of three rarities are being held. This is done in order to get the entitlement of Free Trade Licenses that aims to give exemptions from planetary taxes and licensing fees for life. Thus, the galaxy's finest bounty hunters have searched the universe for unique items. This has led to Bros capture by Qu, a mecha driving Nuno, and Va-Lis-Ya, a gun-totting manananggal.
The Good:
It continues to amaze us in this story telling of the world of mythspace. The illustrations really help a lot in describing this universe that goes beyond earth.
The cover is still impressive as it maintains that sophisticated futuristic artistic look for a comic book.
The Bad:
Bros is already out in space with Winter-Ice-Thawing, a tyho or a shapeshifter, who gives a quick orientation of the world of mythspace. Despite of the new found information from Winter-Ice-Thawing, there are still lots of questions that remain unanswered as more surfaces.
The Verdict:
Amidst those questions that pile up due to the limited number of pages in the comic book format, the mythspace universe is still an awesome series.
Chikiamco and Koi takes us to new worlds as the universe of mythspace is slowly unveiled in part 2 of Mythspace: Lift Off. This is one comic series that is highly recommended to be read.
