A great story begins in ‘Space Trash Vol 1’
I have been lucky to read a good amount of graphic novels lately. When done right they can take me on some thrilling adventures. When I heard about Space Trash Vol 1 I couldn’t wait to read it. I was able to get a digital copy of this graphic novel and here is what I thought of it.
You can read the plot for Space Trash Vol 1 here:
In 2115, Earth has been abandoned as a lost cause and mankind has moved on to space colonization. At a decrepit high school on the moon for underprivileged youth, Stab, Yuki and Una are three teenagers who try to keep their boredom and resentment at bay by fighting rival gangs and cliques, hanging out, sleeping their way through class, all while trying to avoid punishment from the Student Council.
Fights over turf, respect and snacks lead to unearthing an exciting secret, but will their friendship be strong enough to forge a new future?
I had a tough time putting this graphic novel down. We meet three friends who are going to school on the Moon, and life for them is far from perfect. The lessons are boring and they don’t feel they learn much from them. They also find themselves getting detention every once in a while, and are forced to pick up trash on the roof of the school. One detention though they get shown a big secret, one that could change all of their lives for the better. As this graphic novel comes to a close it is clear this story has only just begun.
Space Trash Vol 1 is available now. You can order this graphic novel on Amazon, at Barnes and Noble and Indiebound.
