An epic sci-fi graphic novel romance between two non-binary characters as they find one another through time, distance, and war. An amazing story that explores the complexity of human nature and what brings us together. When they were kids, Fassen’s fighter spaceship crash-landed on a planet that Lu’s survey force was exploring. It was a forbidden meeting between a kid from a war-focused resistance movement and a kid whose community and planet are dedicated to peace and secrecy. Lu and Fassen are from different worlds and separate solar systems. But their friendship keeps them in each other’s orbit as they grow up. They stay in contact in secret as their communities are increasingly threatened by the omnipresent, ever-expanding empire. As the empire begins a new attack against Fassen’s people--and discovers Lu’s in the process--the two of them have the chance to reunite at last. They finally are able to be together...but at what cost? This beautifully illustrated graphic novel is an epic science fiction romance between two non-binary characters as they find one another through time, distance, and war.

This was a great comic about two people from two very different worlds: a Star Wars-esque situation where rebels are fighting against an oppressive empire and a peaceful, socialist commune where everyone is accepted and cared for. I loved the message and the art was great!
I really loved the art and the characters here, but would have loved some deeper exploration of Lu's world and her relationship with Fassen. The queer representation was fantastic.
DNF @ 75%
I couldn't understand the overall story about the war. I didn't want to DNF yet but I was starting to force myself to finish.
I don't know why I keep reading stories that involve space because I don't like them
