Thank you to Netgalley and Magnetic Press for the arc!
I had high hopes for this supposedly gender-bent, alien planet-exploration graphic novel. Allegedly this story is about two Earth spies sent to the planet Zarkass with "secret" reasons for being there. The art is pretty cool but all of the insults and jokes and whatever are basically misogynistic comments about the female body and sexuality. Also, there's a lot of semi- and full nudity when it's super unnecessary. The characters were extremely sexualized and as a woman, I could tell that men wrote this.

Anyways, the plot was super confusing and as a whole, I really didn't care about anything that happened so it was tough to get through.
