I received a free ARC of this graphic novel in exchange for an honest review.

I liked the artwork so much! Really, he did a fantastic job on that. I found the story idea very interesting, however could be developed more in my opinion. Glad that I read it. Recommended for all comics fans.
The review is also published in my Goodreads account.

This is a comic I got from NetGalley to review! The cover is so good, I was stoked to get a copy.

A team of astronauts go to space in order to build a ship capable of making it to mars. The civilian population of earth, however, is super against the project and them. So, how do you fix that? A space reality show! Drama, sexiness, and uh, space???

As I requested solely off the cover, I was very surprised by what I just said above! I thought maybe a space horror, but this was more of a political statement (or two or three). It’s not over the top though, and there’s an actual story here. I feel like what I wrote above was enough for like a multi-volume series, but this has even more.

Each astronaut receives a private distress call from their own country giving them private instructions during an international emergency. Then chaos ensues. Each character has a different motive and a different reaction. Honestly, with this intense of a plot line, it would have served well as a novel or two even.

Regardless, the artwork is fantastic, some of the space scenes are truly amazing. There’s some really cool stuff done with the panels in this as well.

Personally a 4/5*

Not a bad story, and one I could see adapted into a popular movie given today's political climate. I suppose I was hoping more for something abnormal and unique than what Hopeless wrote, something more creepy than political thriller.

The art by Piotr Kowalski was really nice though.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review!

3.5 stars! The Kármán Line follows a space station crew, who has their life on the station recorded as part of a reality show. All goes well, until one day, each member of the crew gets a private message from their governments that read "ABORT MISSION, RETURN ASAP" The rest of the story focuses on the crew and how they plan to survive the trip from the station back to Earth. The novel was too short! The fact that it's so short hinders the story a bit, making it feel a bit more rushed than it should be. The characters were mildly interesting, but two of the men looked so similar, I had to go back and reread a few pages to figure out who exactly was the one to go out of an airlock. I also greatly disliked the ending and that it was so abrupt. It felt like the story was meant to be longer, but got cut off instead? I did like the concept for this novel, it's a pretty fascinating concept. A reality show that basically treats a space station like a hype house? Fascinating! But it fell a bit short for me. The intrigue was well crafted, and the mystery is what compelled me to read this novel so quickly. The art style was completely fine, very traditional American comics. I was distracted by the one female astronaut looking just like Kara Thrace from Battlestar Galactica, but I think that was a coincidence. Also, minor heads up, this novel has a few spicy scenes in it. I got blasted in the eyes, only a few pages in, with a spice scene. The spicy parts were fine, they made full sense within the plot, but man it still was a whole jumpscare.
