Review: Lightrunner

By Laramie Martinez

Lightrunner is fun in the same way Saturday morning cartoons are fun. Published in 1983, by Starblaze graphics and most recently by Dover Publications, I wasn’t sure what to expect when I picked up this book for review. It turns out I had a classic example of the old school space opera. While it is definitely a product of it’s time, that doesn’t stop it from being a fun read. If you like Silver age art with a familiar yet entertaining sci-fi plot, this comic is worth checking out.
