This was a cute graphic novel. I was a little confused when I started reading it but the story picked up and it got better the more I read. If you're looking for a cute space adventure story then check this out!

I enjoyed the graphic novel for what it was, it had cute illustrations and a fast paced story that kept the reader engaged throughout

The story felt kind of clunky and there wasn't really a good flow in it. Some scenes ended way too early and could have been a bit longer in my opinion. I didn't feel a connection to any of the characters, we hardly found out anything about Hercules or Marlon or Margot (in fact, we know more about Margot who isn't the main character of this GN than we know of the actual main character). I liked the art, though, so yeah that's a plus.

'Hercules Intergalactic Agent #1: Margot the Fridge Girl' by Zabus with art by Antonello Dalena is a graphic novel about an alien out to help a girl from Earth.

Hercules and his alien frind Marlon are enrolled at the School of Intergalactic Agents. Hercules is sent to Earth to observe an Earth child. He meets Margot a young girl who eats ice and hides in refrigerators. She has her reasons, and Hercules will find out and help, even though he is supposed to stay hidden.

The story is kind of mediocre at best, and having a child hide in refrigerators seems like a risky plot point for young readers. I really didn't like the art. Hercules has really over sized glasses and his friend Marlon is just oddly designed.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Europe Comics and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.

A very cute, vibrant, and emotionally well-done little story. Hercules is headstrong and risk, but clearly has a good heart. And Lucy is so sweet and conflicted... I hope there's more!

Reading this story for the first time through this book is quite an experience. It's a really great book.

Hercules intergalactic agent #1 - Margot the fridge girl. this book is an engaging sci fi/fantasy comics. I really liked the concept of this book. here, Hercules and his friend Marlon have just enrolled into the school of intergalactic agent. Hercules is a replacement of his brother and is kinda young for this school, while his weirdo navigator is so silly. they both get a mission to find an earthling child with some strange traits. in search of that, they found Margot, a girl who eats ice. while they are on the mission the dreaded blackbird tries to attack the school.

there is not so much in the plot. so I will not disclose everything. but its a quick shirt read and you will enjoy it. the graphics were colourful and perfect. I didn't at all felt bored while reading this. it was so fascinating. there are some aspects which I really liked and which made the book interesting to me - the sci fi, helping earthlings, missions, the dreadful blackbird, silly Marlon, life problems and Hercules himself was such a fascinating character. though, there is not much humour in this book but its worth a read.

there is a sequel to this book and I am so excited for that. I will definitely recommend this to everyone.

I thought this graphic novel was cute and quick! I love space as a setting and the characters were fun to travel with. I think the art and coloring were super cute and honestly kind of reminded me of Space Jam a little. Overall I think I would keep going with the series!

The concept here is decent. Young aliens charged with assisting people, making observations. Trying to prove themselves and fighting some vast conspiracy. Its got hints of Care Bears. The plot is a bit labored. The actions of the Earth girl make no sense and that part felt like it took away from the plot on the space ship.

Some of this graphic novel felt a bit forced, for example the kiss, it didn’t need to happen and felt unnecessary to the plot. Then it was just forgotten about. Also, some of the comic was hard to follow, like the key in the room with the brother(I think) wasn’t entirely clear of what as happening or why the brother was suspended in a random room. Overall the comic was good and easy to follow except for those little bits previously mentioned. I’d like to read a more elaborate version that explains a few more things.

Just a mess, this lost me when an action scene became completely unreadable, but it seems to be a set-up to a series involving an alien boy and his cloud, and an ice-munching earthling girl. Yup, it makes that much sense. Be grateful I didn't mention the action scene involved a giant crow with a cyborg eye, then.

Didn't enjoy this very much. The plot is too jumpy and some panels were "missing" since the artist skipped some movements. I didn't like most of the characters besides for Margot but I like the idea of the alien school. I don't plan on continuing with the series though.

Thank you Netgalley for providing me with the digital version for an honest review.

In this first comic book, we follow Hercule and Marlon, two students whose mission is to help a human child to validate their first year of study to become Intergalactic Agents. He will then meet Margot, a strange girl who eats ice cubes with a shovel ...

I really enjoyed this first volume, both in terms of illustrations and history, which I found cute and neat to follow.
After finishing it, I realized that the genre made me think of Monster Allergy, which is normal since the illustrator worked on the series in question)! ^^

Honestly I was just confused throughout a lot of this book. There isn't really any backstory and a lot of alien things aren't explained. Though, while it was confusing, it was still a fun and quick read. Hopefully they clear things up in the next issue.

Nice, quick and easy to read comic that would be great for kids dealing with a sick parent. I liked how even though Hercules helping the little girl was the main event in the comic there was still lots of other things happening and unanswered questions making want to read #2 ... like who is the engineer that he visits but never says a word ? or why are they so worried about the children of earth ? what is coming?

Hercules Intergalactic Agent vol 1: Margot the Fridge Girl looked interesting, since there's not enough scifi comics for kids. This first part isn't all that long either, so I was hyped. Sadly so the comic would've needed more pages to work better. Hercules is an intergalactic agent, but he basically sucks at it and he's the replacement for his brother. He goes to school with this weirdo navigator and one of their school work missions happens in Earth. They meet Margot, a girl who eats ice. She doesn't want to feel anything and thus wants her tears to turn into ice and all this is because her mother is sick and bedridden. Our duo helps, but there's the looming danger of Blackbird. The setting is interesting surely, but we don't get to know the characters well enough to feel anything and there's surely action, but hardly any other content.

The art work looks great and the colors are wonderful too. This is an easy read in many ways, which is important for younger readers. Also, this is a serious comic with heavy topics too, which is even better. Perhaps this comic could've been longer in order to better convey everything it had to offer, since that's the thing - too much and too little at the same time is hard to tackle. Still, this Hercules series seems quite ice and I do hope Zabus gets better at doing this, since there's never enough comics for kids.

This was a sweet and fast paced graphic novel. Particulary think the target audience could benefit more, for me I just needed a little more development to get into the story and characters.

Need to highlight the bit about the human girl eating ice so she'd be emotionally stable and prepare to face her sick mother and not breaking down, and having the courage to go through even after expressing emotions was pretty touching.

I really liked this first books. I felt it was short and at times rushed but that’s exactly why I wanted to kep reading. The characters are well established and finished wanting to know more about them. The art style is gorgeous and the color palette really fits the story.

Creative, colorful, and bold. My only wish is that the book had been longer — which I intend as a compliment.

Cute, quick story about an alien and a girl trying to fight through difficult times in their lives. I do hope there is more to come.
