Series · DSTLRY
NEW DSTLRY SERIES DEBUT FROM CURT PIRES (Indigo Children, Youth) AND AMILCAR PINNA (X-Men)! What if George Lucas and Quentin Tarantino f@#& ed and had a baby? That baby would be Curt Pires and Amilcar Pinna's GALACTIC. An ultraviolent interstellar romance that tells the story of a roguish bounty hunter hired to bring back a Princess on a death-bender on a hippy planet, and inadvertently find themselves caught in the crossfire of an intergalactic war. And maybe, just maybe, falling in love along the way! Did we mention there's a talking dog who pilots the starship?! For fans of STAR WARS, SAGA and SEX CRIMINALS.
Galactic #1
Start at the beginning, with Issue #1 — the opening shot of an ongoing widescreen saga. New chapters are landing now, so there's no better time to get in on the ground floor and ride along from the first jump to hyperspace.
Preview
9.5/10“Blending mature extremes to a sci-fi caper results in a sci-fi tale that needs to be read asap! Pires takes readers on a wildly intense ride & never holds back. Pinna and Loughridge construct emotional art to balance out the insanity pouring off the pages. You don't want to miss where this story goes form here!”
9/10“Lets get something out of the way up front; DSTLRY describes Galactic as What if George Lucas and Quentin Tarantino f@#&ed and had a baby? That baby would be Curt Pires and Amilcar Pinnas Galactic and Im here to tell you that description is 100% accurate. From the very first page, Galactic #1 feels like an obscene love letter to Star Wars with what can only be described as the cantina scene on acid. In fact, much of Galactic #1 feels like a love letter to the arguably greatest sci-fi franchise in entertainment, from the roguish bounty hunter Jecht Marco and his pilot, Wolf (who happens to be a talking dog) to the alien designs to even the Princess at the center of political drama who is anything but a damsel in distress. There are some incredible visual and thematic similarities that immediately make the reader feel at home.”
8/10“Galactic #2 continues to showcase why the series is such an easy read for fans of big sci-fi adventures. Pires keeps the story moving with action, political intrigue, and character-building moments, while Pinna's artwork remains the true star of the show. The romance may develop faster than the story earns, but the issue's energy, visual ambition, and pulpy charm make it a satisfying second installment.”
