review:
'Siberia 56' by Christophe Bec with art by Alexis Sentenac is a science fiction graphic novel about life on a hostile planet. It appealed to me as a decent science fiction story and the art was better than average.
A new relief crew to planet Siberia 56 crash lands 150 miles from the base. Hostile conditions on the planet mean they have to cross the distance on foot. Hostile lifeforms on the planet mean they might not all make it. With a giant creature that can approach undetected, a non-liveable atmosphere, and a government that has it's own motivations, it might be hard for humans to survive.
It did remind me a bit of Aliens and Dune, but I don't think that's a bad thing. I appreciated characters in peril that actually used their brains. I liked the painted art quite a bit. At times things are a bit indistinct, but on a planet of snow storms, I think this was definitely a good choice.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Insight Editions and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
