Faster Than Light, Issue #9 and Issue #10 came out five or six months ago, but I'm just getting around to reading them. The series is good enough to finish (Issue #10 is the finale); I like the visuals, I like the characters, and I like the story. In Issue #8, Sally is drunk and bragging about how she is the queen of Earth. She gets kidnapped, of course, to be held for ransom. The ransom? The giant crystal they have on board, which is more valuable than they realize.
Although Issue #10 is the final issue, there is no resolution; in fact, the issue makes me just want to read more of Faster Than Light. It's a good series. The question now is whether or not the show makes it onto TV on Skydance Television, which has optioned the series. I've seen a lot of promises to make TV shows from a lot of science-fiction and fantasy comics and novels, and not all of them have happened. It was 2011 when I heard that American Gods was being optioned by HBO, and it's just now becoming a TV series on another network, so there is hope.
