Review: Junior




Space sector 7141986: space cadet Junior, accompanied by her trusty miniature talking hippopotamus buddy Walter, has been given the job of repairing damage to a remote observation station in orbit of planet 811. It's punishment detail, for what we do not know, but she messed up somewhere and this is the result.

Busy bitching about her predicament, she fails to notice a detail that Walter - the more level-headed of the duo - has picked out: holes ostensibly caused by meteor impacts do not look like they were actually the result of natural phenomena.

Further ruminations become academic when a fireball hurtles straight towards them, forcing them back into their (now damaged) ship and en route to a very hasty crash landing on the planet below...

Junior by writer/artist Alex Kmeto plunges the reader into a thrilling, tumbling ride from danger into ... well, quite probably a lot more danger. Planet 811 is full of life and it is of the carnivorous variety, complete with jaws, claws and a hunger for human (and, quite, probably, hippo) flesh.

The artwork is fresh and well-polished. Junior is a feisty red-headed athletic space chick maverick but resourceful; Walter her cute but conscientious companion.    

There is more to this prehistoric jungle planet than meets the eye. There is something much stranger than dinosaurs on this mysterious world...

The only question is, will Junior and Walter live long enough to find out what it is?
