Vol 1 Bad Goods - Ch 1
25 comics.
I know space is three-dimensional, and with localized, artificially-generated gravity fields, ships don’t always have to be aligned on the same plane as they are in terrestrial environments. I wanted to specifically reference that in panel 1, where the Khoruysa[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
