Becstar Vol. 1

by Joe Corallo, Lorenzo Colangeli (Illustrator), Joamette Gil (Letterer)

Overview

Becstar is a star hopping mercenary-gone-full time-gambler light years away from earth. Leaving her old life behind with the help of her magical luck dagger and her fan-turned-regret filled-friend Sally Soolin, Becstar ekes out a living under the nefarious Shadowy Syndicate’s radar. But when a mysterious girl appears with grim news and an urgent quest where the fate of the universe hangs in the balance, Becstar has no choice but to join ... and regret it immediately.

Editorial Reviews

"Expertly written quick wittiness and a fantastically developed story mixed in with a swashbuckling space adventure premise are sure to put Becstar on the pull lists of many readers. An out of this world opening, bring on more..."

"Becstar is a highly enjoyable sci-fi story with some superpowers thrown in for good measure. The creative team has rendered an interesting world well worth exploring and this first issue offers a story that’s hard to put down"
