Honestly, I really liked this.
It nailed the emotional ambiguity and need to survive.
I thought the flashbacks were pretty straightforward. I can see how it could be confusing if you are new to the sci-fi genre or new to a graphic novel format.

I liked the pacing, and I was able to follow the storyline okay. I just felt like the characters could have been more fleshed out, and the ending was not very satisfying to me.

I want to start this off with the complete insanity that the "rescue" ship is only built to handle one person. Like I get the odds are grim just generally in this world but I feel like that's insane like assuming everyone made it out of the crash, how does a crew make that decision of who to send back.
But once you get past the lack of forethought on what are we going to do if things go down. This story is action-packed from beginning to end, it is definitely a page-turner and leaves you on the edge of your seat the entire read. Because up until the last page you really don't know how this is going to turn out
As I was reading I really ended up feeling like this was a commentary on humanity, and how it is easy to put your survival over everyone elses.

Good but I wanted more reading to go with the visual. Felt like a quick ending.

Black Star would work way better as a movie than it did as a comic. Not my fave.
