Issue 1 of 5
Writer: Joe Corallo Artist: Lorenzo Colangeli Cover Artist: Sweeney Boo Letterer: Joamette Gil
Synopsis: Becstar is a star hopping mercenary-gone-full time-gambler light years away from earth. Leaving her old life behind with the help of her magical lucky dagger and friend Sally Soolin, Becstar ekes out a living under the nefarious Shadow Syndicate’s radar. But when a mysterious girl appears with grim news and an urgent quest where the fate of the universe hangs in the balance, Becstar has no choice but to join… and regret it immediately.
"Having seen Mad Cave Studios expand over the past couple of years, I was ecstatic to be approached about contributing to their ever growing library of comics. Becstar was an opportunity for me to have fun writing the kind of fantastical sci-fi stories I personally love while also telling a deeper story about losing the people important to your life who defined you and having to build yourself back up again. I'm grateful to have been given this opportunity and I hope my enthusiasm shines through."
"As a young emerging artist, I’ve hoped that my first opportunity would be in the comic world. It seemed as though the stars aligned when Mad Cave Studios found me. Working on Becstar has been such an amazing experience, and each day I find myself identifying more and more with the characters. This wouldn’t have been such a great experience if it wasn’t for our amazing team. Joe and Chris have gone above and beyond in making sure I feel at home, which has made all the difference. I look forward to continuing my career with this team and showing everyone the amazing adventures of Becstar, Sally, and Paprika!" - Lorenzo Colangeli, Artist
