The Wandering Star by Teri S. Woods. It's a science fiction epic with humans and aliens shortly after a galactic war, and you really have to see it to appreciate how her linework makes the characters come to life.

Wow. Pretty neat stuff!

I think one thing that intrigues me about this is the use of the "frame element." In a way, it tells me, "The writer can't just make this all up on the fly. It can't ramble on aimlessly. It has to actually go somewhere, in order to lead up to the present." Of course, there's still a lot of room for leeway that I'll never know about, but the idea of it intrigues me. I don't think I can recall seeing it too often in comics, aside from short stories.

Thank you very much for the link! I'll have to check back in a while and see how it progresses.

Well, we can take it as given that the narrator lives through the events, for one thing. };)

You never know. This is sci-fi. Could be a clone-with-a-brain-tape/replicant/holodeck simulation/etc., if the writer REALLY wants to mess with us.
