Description:
"MY LOW-G LIFE," Part One One day, gravity on earth suddenly became a fraction of what it is now. Twenty years later, humanity has adapted to its new low-gravity reality. And to Willa Fowler, a woman born just after G-day, it’s…well, it’s pretty awesome, actually. You can fly through the air! I mean, sure, you can also die if you jump too high. So you just don’t jump too high. And maybe don’t stumble into a dangerous plan to bring gravity back that could get you killed…. From writer JOE HENDERSON (showrunner of Fox’s Lucifer) and artist LEE GARBETT (Lucifer, Loki: Agent of Asgard), SKYWARD is an adventure-filled exploration of our world turned upside down and a young woman’s journey to find her place in it.

Ooooh now what's this?! Never even heard of Skyward, but it's a beauty by a quick glance! Thank you ever so much, Spatial! I've just started my summer holiday (oh yes), so this is a real treat for the staycation!

Oh gosh, Willa has the most gorgeous hair in low-G.. But that's enough of girly stuff! I loved the storyline, the whole concept of the world having low gravity and challenging mankind's way of living. All those questions presented on farming, moving, water reserves and small every day tasks were just mindboggling when you started to think about them. I just wonder why Willa's dad had decided to move out of the house in the beginning into a condo..perhaps it made moving in the city easier? Was it sturdier than a house? The amount of questions arising from the album is endless! At times I loved the lines, the liveliness of the characters, but every now and then the panels felt a little hurried or not so important to the story, like the artists had been in a hurry to keep the story moving. I had to google the series, and apparently there are only two other collected editions..I just might have go and find them! Just to see what the place to reverse the low-G effect is, and why on earth hadn't Willa's dad gone there earlier?!

Birthday surprise! Hope you're having a best of days!

Thanks pippis for the interesting looking graphic novel!
