review:
'Summit Vol. 1: The Long Way Home' by Amy Chu with art by Jan Duursema is, so far, the best title I've seen out of the Catalyst Prime universe. That's still not saying a ton, but it gives me hope.

Val Resnick-Baker is the sole survivor of the space mission that spawned The Event. She is found on Earth, having fallen from space. She also has some interesting energy casting powers now, if only she can figure out how to use them. With the help of her friends at M.I.T., she creates a suit to help her manage things. She is plagued by ghosts from the past, but they seem to help her free her powers, so maybe that's not a bad thing.

This whole series is really bad with time jumps. It's hard to tell what is now ans what is the past. I'm still not crazy about the latter third of these books and the story about The Event. The story hasn't held my interest and feels really repetitive. I'd rather have had more Summit storyline in the present. What I did like quite a lot is the art by Jan Duursema. It's the best of the line so far.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Lion Forge, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
