review:
'Rocket Salvage' by Yehudi Mercado with art by Bachan and Jeremy Lawson is a Sci-Fi graphic novel with the kind of wackiness you might like, if you liked the Guardians of the Galaxy movies.

Primo Rocket had a career as a racer until an accident. Now he runs scrapyard with his two kids, Beta and Zeta. But there are secrets behind these two kids, like one of them is secretly a weapon. Now everyone wants the weapon and Primo has to fight off megalomaniacs, mobsters, and luatic scientists to save his kids.

This story scratched an itch I've got for loopy science fiction. At times, the family feels like Speed Racer, but there isn't a lot of racing going on in this. There is a ton of action, and I liked just about all of these characters, good and bad. The art works wonderfully, especially when things get all topsy turvy.

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