LOVED THIS!!! Queers in space?? YES PLEASE! Sorry for creaming at you, but this is a must read! I desperate need volume 2 already! The characters are great, the dialogue is humorous, the artwork is beautiful, the storyline is exciting. What more can I say? Please, read this!

I loved the concept of the story! Every piece of information was so cool and fascinating. 

And these are some great characters. Stab, Yuki and Una's dynamics are fantastic. I loved their friendship, the way they protected one another, their conversations. And I really want to know more about them and their backgrounds. How they found each other, why they are at the moon, how the society they live in works.

I'm just a bit scared about what will happen to them concerning the villains, the Student Council.

I absolutely loved the art! All characters, even the ones that were just in the background, were drawn with detail and care, and they all seemed to be important. This was my first time experiencing something like that and I really enjoyed!

After that ending, I need the next volume right at this moment! And I look forward to reading the sequels to this graphic novel and others by the author!

The artwork in this graphic novel is incredible! The story, which follows three queer teenagers as they navigate life in a school on the moon, was fast-paced and very enjoyable. Although this volume was mostly just an introduction to the world, the characters and storyline (specifically the ending) were intriguing enough that I know I'll want to continue reading the series as it comes out even though I've only been giving a small look into this world. I do think that there could've been a bit more explanation on how these characters got into this situation and the worldbuilding left something to be desired, but for a first volume I think it was pretty good.

Overall, I highly enjoyed 'Space Trash' for both its sci-fi storyline and beautiful artwork. Thanks to NetGalley and Oni Press for allowing me to read the ARC of this book!

Space Trash follows three teenagers from different walks of life as they adjust to their new boarding school on the moon and try to make themselves into one of the most feared gangs around. It's a shame detention keeps getting in their way...

This volume very much feels like the set up for a series. I liked it well enough, but I think if it had been a little longer and perhaps explored the world we find ourselves in a but more, it would have been more memorable.

I really liked this. It's a very fast read that I devoured. I adore the artwork.

This first volume introduces us to the characters and I enjoyed them all. The boarding school on the moon setting was amusing.

There's not a lot of meat to the story but it's a good set up that has me looking forward to more. I can' wait to see where the story goes.

This was a really great first volume. We were introduced to a group of friends - Stab, Yuki and Una - who go to a school for underprivileged youths on the moon. They spend their time going to class, hanging out, and battling other cliques over snacks and turf. Towards the end of the book, the girls are let in on a secret and they have a decision to make. Will their friendship withstand the test? We'll have to wait until volume two to find out!

Overall, this was a really good intro to this world and the characters. The artwork was nicely done as well. I'm looking forward to the next volume!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

For a first volume, I really didn't like it. Teenage girls in a boarding school on the moon that's it because nothing really happens here and for a short graphic novel, I was going to DNF it. I didn't like the characters or the plot, really it was boring for me, I felt claustrophobic while reading it.
The illustrations were nice which is the only thing that kept interested in this book in order to finish it.

"Space Trash" is the sci-fi adventure I didn't know I needed. The graphic novel features three girls who attend a sinister boarding school on the moon in a future where the Earth has been declared uninhabitable. But of course, not everything is quite as it seems.

I appreciate Woodall's attention to detail throughout the book - each panel is thoughtfully and carefully drawn. The backgrounds are frequently fleshed-out and include details that support the story's worldbuilding or character design, which I loved! Recently many graphic novels I've picked up haven't utilized backgrounds or settings as a storytelling tool, but Woodall uses them perfectly. Speaking of attention to detail - each character is distinct, unique, and has their own separate voice. Although each of the girls certainly fits into the overall scrappy sci-fi aesthetic of the book, they're all individual and have their own energies. Not only are they written well, but Woodall's illustrations add to each character and really flesh them out.

The art in this book really is beautiful. It works in harmony with the dialogue to move the story forward and it does a fantastic job of it. Dream sequences around the middle of the book reminded me heavily of Tillie Walden's "On A Sunbeam" (which is also a graphic novel about girls attending space boarding schools) which I loved. The style was smooth and stunning. In general throughout the book, there's not only cohesive style and aesthetic, but a use of color palettes so that everything feels connected.

The one thing I would've liked to see more of was development of the "student council" as a presence in the book. They're framed as the antagonists of the story, and although they're vaguely mentioned every now and then in the book, they're not really prominent until the very end. I didn't even realize Woodall was lining them up to be the big bad until the last couple of pages - I wish there'd been just a bit more buildup to these characters and this organization. I understand that this is part of a series, and naturally will end on a cliffhanger, so this is definitely more of a stylistic choice.

If you're looking for a sci-fi story with distinct characters, an interesting premise, and stunning art, this is most definitely the book for you! I can't wait to see how the story develops over the course of the next few volumes.

I got this on Netgalley in exchange for an honest review!

I was really excited for this before reading it since I have grown to love comics and graphic novels featuring a teen / young adult girl-gang, but was ultimately disappointed!

Although I enjoyed what we got in this first volume and am interested in what comes next (and learning more about the girls, their backgrounds and interests), it feels more like a prequel than a whole volume of its own. It feels like nothing really happens here except make the very general basis for the rest of the story that is to come, and while it does provide some world-building, it is not doing it well enough that I would say I liked this volume.

Also: LOVE the diversity, so cant wait to see what is to come and see what I assume is a corrupt af world.

Rated either 2⭐️ or 2.5⭐️

This was really beautifully illustrated and I'm really excited for where this story is going to lead! I loved the character designs and the bits of their personalities we got to see and yes, this novel felt like it was setting up for future volumes- I'm really excited to continue!

Also, I don't know what this character design is doing but all of the characters (main and side) are so pretty. I love them. Chaos girls for the win!!

This was a fun, quick read. As it was mostly focused on setting up the story for the next volumes, there wasn't too much depth to it. I have a feeling the next volume will be even better, so I'll keep an eye out for that.

I definitely enjoyed the setting and the characters enough to want to continue with this. It was fun to read a slice-of-life story set on the moon in the future, with rebellious teenagers wanting to go back to earth. The ending made me curious to see what will happen next.

I thought this was delightful! I absolutely loved the drawing style, the way this story is told and these characters. The world building was wonderful and it was an absolute joy to spend time with this graphic novel. I cannot wait for Vol. 2.

Space Trash is a graphic novel I received through Netgalley... and it was okay? It was definitely not for me though. The plot only starts on page 90 or so, and till then I can't say I cared all that much for it. I also didn't care all that much about the characters, and the art style was just fine (though there were some very nice spreads, in general it wasn't anything special). It is very sapphic, so jeey for those who are looking for that. I personally would have liked to see a character without piercings and dyed hair... Also, that school looks like absolute hell. But yeah, not for me.

The story follows our three main characters, who are students at a run-down boarding school on the moon, under the premise that after the supposed collapse of civilization on Earth, humans went to space. Now they're bored and causing normal teenage trouble - in space!

The reader is kind of just thrown right into the middle of a story will very little background - which when done well, I usually enjoy, but this one fell a little flat. Despite that though, the illustrations were a lot of fun, I'm curious to learn more about our main characters, and the cliffhanger at the end of the volume could end up being really fun!

Thanks to Oni Press and Netgalley for the eARC in exchange for an honest review!

Jenn Woodall knows her way around dialogue - everything anyone says in this book is fun, snappy and sort of.. oh I'm going to type it, effervescent! The four main characters are delightful (especially Stab! no they're all great..!), and they're situation, living away from their families at a boarding-school-slash-high-school on the moon works both as satire and as a completely mundane and relatable predicament.

Lately I keep catching myself how the first volume of a series is mostly just set-up, and that's kind of true here too, BUT.. the writing and the art are both just so charming.

Good times, good times.

Earth is becoming a distant memory as humans have jumped ship off the dying planet. The first volume of Space Trash follows three teens as they navigate their moon-based boarding school. Their time is spent fighting for turf and avoiding the student council, but this is just the beginning!

The relationships between the characters all felt really genuine and heartfelt. You can sense their bond right from the beginning. I'm so interested in the main three and can't wait to delve more into their backstories in the next volumes.

The art style is beautiful and grungy in all the right ways. Each page is so detailed and full of fun lore. I loved how every background character looks so unique and cool, each could easily be in the main cast of characters. The subtle inclusion of body hair was also lovely to see.

My only wish for Space Trash is for the second one to be out already! It felt like we were just getting started when the last page came.

This was a great foundation for a story, and I think it will end up being really great in future volumes. I loved the art style and the characters seem interesting, but it was an extremely fast read and there wasn't much time to get to know them beyond the surface. Overall it was a cool concept and I'm excited to see where it goes in the future.

Cetus-Lupeedus! Super great start to a series! I'm stoked to see where this goes.. The cast is diverse and fun. Can't wait to get more backstory on the characters and the science :)

Space Trash is a fun sci-fi romp! Three teens are stuck in a futuristic boarding school in the moon. Robot teachers don’t tell the truth about the Earth’s past and the student council is always watching for misbehaving young ladies. How are Yuki, Una, and Stab going to make it through the day without getting bullied or put in detention?

I loved the art in this graphic novel. The colors are bright and fun, and the characters are unique and expressive. I appreciate how different each of the characters are in terms of interests and personality, while their friendship still makes perfect sense. There is a cliffhanger ending and I can’t wait to read the next volume!

The start to a new comic series about three queer teenagers a school (that has seen better days) on the moon.

This was a fun, beautifully illustrated, start to what I believe is going to be a fun series, but honestly nothing much happened. The foundation that's been laid seems promising, though. The characters are interesting, the school is kind of creepy and the space element is intriguing. I'm excited to see where the author takes the story from here.
