Satellite Sam, Vol. 1: The Lonesome Death of Satellite Sam by Howard Chaykin, Matt Fraction

2.0

---

This sordid tale of the early days of TV, a dead star, sleazy sex secrets and various other loose ends is kind of a hot mess. The story involves a fairly large cast some of whom have pretty interesting stories, but few of them actually go anywhere, and fewer still make you really care about their outcomes. Howard Chaykin's art is unusually poor and unfinished, and the page composition is sometimes hard to follow.
