Dreadstar Volume 2: The Price
Jim Starlin
SLG Publishing, 2000
This story should not be missed
+ Fantastic cosmic heroism, but missing the color!
Looking back at the loong collector phase of my life, this was one of the books that still comes to my mind. It's grim, it's gritty--vintage Starlin. The phrase "the price" always reminds me of this comic because I remember just how dear the price was that Syzygy paid.
