Comments: This collects issues one through four of the series.
This story is about Travis a Garbage Man. Now one outpost, Unit 6 stops answering calls.
We see even on a planet of garbage love blooms. Travis and Cassandra are in love. Two people working shitty jobs still manage to find love it is wonderful to see.
The art style is crowded but it works well. Travis is shown as just a guy doing his job. So he is looking for Unit 6, McGlusky. He does run into some danger while searching. The swarm does not seem overly deadly but looks can be deceiving.
It is nice to follow along with Travis a normal man. Yet when it comes to playing hero he continues.
This issue sets up a mystery that is only mentioned so we get no clues as to what caused it.
Travis is your average nine to fiver doing a job he is good at but does not fully enjoy. Cleaning up after others is never easy. Cleaning up radioactive waste is even harder.
Travis is someone you will identify with.
Travis has a huge garbage creature attack him and another garbage man. This creature is massive and it engulfs them. The origin of this creature is uniquely amazing.
Above the planet Earth, there is a space station where the humans live as the garbage men clean up the planet. This is a contained society and run by various classes with the rich and politicians ruling. It is also a society in trouble. Things do heat up aboard the Space Station as it re-enters Earth’s atmosphere.
Travis and Cassy find themselves pondering what to do next with their lives. This is decided for them in a way Cassy wishes it was not.
The story moves along fast and it has happiness in a world gone to hell until it does not.
