An enjoyable return to the Raza after binging on the final season of the television series inspired by this graphic novel. The art by Garry Brown translated well to the tube. I wish we could see the story of the Raza's crew resolved in some way.

I saw they were making a show on Syfy about this, so I wanted to check it out. I really liked this book! I love the premise of a group of people waking up with amnesia, but it felt like they could have let that play out longer than they did. Although I definitely enjoyed the couple of major plot twist revelations that play out in this story, especially the cliff hanger ending. I haven't been able to find if there are more in this series, but hopefully the show will be a success and keep the story going. If done right, I think this could develop a Firefly-like cult following.

A fairly interesting premise with some twists, and a few sci-fi cliches, that makes for a good story. But the art is just god awful. I read in the back how the writer thought this style was dynamic but it's just fuzzy and makes me ill.

Liked the show better as I like the changes it made from the comic. The show android is far more interesting as the comic book one really just seems like a cookie cutter character. Still it's interesting to see the source material.

Picked up this graphic novel in anticipation for the series that will be on Space/SyFy. I'm curious about what's going to happen next, especially with that cliffhanger ending. I did find myself going to the back of the novel trying to remember who was whom. That was more of me not being used of reading graphic novels and just understanding the illustration style. Can't wait to see how this story continues to play out.

I enjoyed it well enough - for a graphic novel, but the best thing is it will become a television show next year and I am excited for that as this book did leave me wanting more. It's almost like the authors did this on purpose, to get a show made... :)

I picked this up because I love the Syfy show. This served as the basis for the show, and the pilot episode follows it pretty closely. On the one hand, that's cool. On the other, the comic actually suffers in comparison to the show, which is in its third season and has had time to build the characters and the world. This is an enjoyable story, but ultimately, it doesn't have the length to do much with the characters or expand upon the mystery of who everyone is and how their memories got wiped. Occasionally, the action scenes were hard to follow. A neat jumping-off point, but not much more than that.
