Stephen McCraine’s Space Boy volumes 1-3 in one book! To Amy, everyone has a flavor. When her dad loses his job on their remote deep space mining colony, Amy and her family are forced to start a new life back on Earth. Emerging from a cryotube after a 30 year voyage, Amy awakes to find herself in a strange land of heavy gravity, weird people, and an endless blue sky. High school seems difficult at first, but Amy is soon able to settle into a comfortable group of friends that help make the transition easier. But one of Amy’s classmates is different from the others. He’s quieter than most the other kids, more reserved, and strangest of all, he doesn’t have a flavor. A sci-fi drama of a high school aged girl who belongs in a different time, a boy possessed by emptiness as deep as space, an alien artifact, mysterious murder, and a love that crosses light years. Collects Stephen McCraine’s Space Boy volumes 1-3.

Amy sees peoples‘ flavor. She is also a time traveler of sorts: lived in deep space until her dad lost his job and they took the journey to Earth. The 30-year journey in cryogenic stasis. She is still 16, 30 years later, which makes this an interesting twist on a high school fish-out-of-water story. The art is awesome, the Earth is interestingly jetsons-y, Space boy is a mystery, and I can hardly wait to see where these lovable characters end up!

Am loving this graphic novel that starts with such a fun idea. Throughout, she sees peoples‘ flavors. And how people/flavors go together, or not.
It is delightful.
I wonder what flavor I am. You?
