Planet Gigantic 3

Yuri is confronted by a past foe as Valentina and Lyana square off against a giant centipede. Also in this issue: Lyana the Seeker journeys to the underwater wreck of a grand skyship. When she arrives, she soon realizes there is more than treasure buried there.

The epic space adventure continues..is what I wanted to say.  I almost did it last time, and I still thought about it here.  In all seriousness though, with the story now full throttle, I couldn’t wait to see what happened next in Planet Gigantic book 3.  There were all kinds of fun surprises, most especially the very end.

The third issue of our adventure starts off revealing who Yuri’s mystery cell mate ends up being that was hinted at in issue two.  It also turns out becoming an unexpected ally which I’m guessing will come into play later.  The bulk of this book of course is on fight with the giant centipede that our two young ladies have found themselves trying to deal with.  Their escapade with the huge bug (plural later on) is actually quite fun and it was impressive in how they worked it out.

With a ton of action and lots of sci-fi visuals in this issue, the artwork was probably the best so far.  I also really enjoyed the color scheme for the end of the book short story in this issue.  The only thing I was a little iffy on was the overabundance of glow again.  I really like how it makes everything so in your face, but it wore on me a little this time.

To be honest, the only real disappoint I can say I have is that issue four is going to be the conclusion.  I know there’s a good chance it may become a regular series, and I’m personally hoping for it.  Whether or not the next one is it for good, you should grab what has come out so far in preparation for the finale.
