Title: Sam: Fate Revolution
Issue: 1 (Remastered Edition)
Publisher: Foongatz Studios
Date: 2007
Writer: Bill Gallagher, Alex Drinan, Ron Smith
Artist: Bill Gallagher, Ron Smith
The Alliance Shipping Federation, which has handled the galaxy's merchant trade for years, finds itself forced to turn into a military power when confronted by the threat of Rancor, a being of immense power bent on conquest and destruction.
Meanwhile, in the ASF capital city, a young man named Sam struggled to piece his life together after being found suffering from amnesia. As Rancor's forces gather to strike, Sam's efforts to lead a normal life with eventually lead him directly into the conflict.
This was a good mix of action, epic backstory, and character-driven comedy. The story took the time to introduce characters and to give them individual lives and some fun dialogue.
The anthropomorphic animal characters (mostly dogs and dinosaurs!seem a bit cartoony, given the serious nature long-term plot, but I found them to be compelling and fun.
The colors are vivid, and the action, when it occurs, is explosive, with good use of splash pages.
Overall a fun book with more going on than I had expected to see.
Rating: 7.5/10
