Planetes Omnibus, Volume 2
Planetes Omnibus, Volume 2 | Makoto Yukimura
6 posts | 2 read | 5 to read
Mankind has established a base on the Moon and manned missions to Mars, and now prepares to travel further into space than ever before. Fulfilling his lifelong dream of space exploration, young Hachimaki makes the cut for the Von Braun Jupiter mission, forcing him to confront his own limitations beyond the farthest frontier. Back home, his compatriots Fee, Yuri, and Tanabe stare down the United States military, refusing to abandon their mission clearing space debris in the face of a war that threatens to set off the Kessler syndrome, trapping Earth forever behind a wall of deadly space debris! Often cited as a gateway title into the world of manga, Planetes is a modern classic, and Dark Horse Manga is proud to present the series' concluding omnibus volume, produced from the original files and including all the color pages and bonus stories! "My favorite sci-fi comics series of all time."-Writer Alex de Campi (Smoke/Ashes, Archie vs. Predator)

I love her so much. And she is talking to a military man named Colonel Sanders, who's got the hair and 'stache to match.

Sace It's probably blasphemy, but find myself liking manga art or comics art. 7y
BiblioNyan @RestlessFickleBookSlut Why would you liking manga and comic art be blasphemous? Sorry just confused. 7y
Sace @Bibli0.Nyan Gah! Typo. I like Manga art OVER comic. It's a debate my husband I have all the time. He just doesn't like manga but likes comic art. 7y

BiblioNyan @RestlessFickleBookSlut Ahhh!! Okay, I understand now. 😊 I don't think it's blasphemous at all. I love both mediums very dearly, but I do prefer the consistency of manga art that isn't always there with comics. I also find it more visually pleasing. Although, occasionally there'll be that one comic that completely beats manga art, very uncommon but does happen, due to its originality. Like Monstress. It's superbly gorgeous. 😆😆 7y
Sace I need to see if I can get Monstress from my library. Everyone raves about it. 7y
BiblioNyan @RestlessFickleBookSlut it's really amazing but I feel I should warn you that it is also very graphic in regards to violence. 7y

This so well-written. I love the depiction of the astronauts as very normal, everyday people with dysfunctional and realistic backgrounds that led them to their current career paths. The artwork is also sensationally brilliant.

Because a Muslim astronaut in the future has never heard of baseball...right. Okay, Yukimura. I'm going to take a wild guess and suppose that you don't know much about other cultures. -_-"
