Descender Volume 1: Tin Stars (Descender Tp) - Jeff Lemire, Dustin Nguyen, Dustin Nguyen

Decender Vol. 1

 

Trigger warning for robot-genocide, especially for Grim.

 

The cover looked pretty, so I had to read it. Shallow, I know.

 

Tim-21, a companion robot, wakes up on his mining colony only to find 10 years have passed and his human family is dead. More has happened though. After a robot-alien species killed millions, androids have been allowed and are actively searched for and exterminated (to speak with the Daleks).

 

I really quite liked this book. It had something, I can't really describe what it was that made me want to continue reading and also I liked Tim-21 a lot. At first I was a bit suspicious of the story (since I've been disappointed with a lot of graphic novels lately) but it was unnecessary. Although it was a little bit chaotic at times, I would really like to know how the story continues.

 

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!
