The brilliant animation team, Blue Spirit Studios, based out of Montreal and Paris, is the same group that did "What If?" which was their first foray beyond French cartoons. Their captivating artwork complement a fluid story line with strong character development. Continuing to collaborate with "Heroes" producer, Michael Green, Masi Oka provides timely humor as Ringo. The soundtrack is invigorating, lending a pulse to, at times, predictable action sequences. The comparisons to Kill Bill have been made by some critics, which is spot on since it combines a traditional story with a modern vibe. Over eight tightly packed episodes, the series contains a considerable amount of pacing that allows it to breathe with meaning and purpose. There isn't a better animated series IMHO and is perfect for fans of "Warrior" on MAX. You won't be able to tell how satisfying this show is till you start it.

There's tremendous heart put into this series.. and at a time when most sci-fi is bleak and unfulfilling.. I can't ask for anything more. Look at Foundation, Last Man On Earth, Outer Range, Raised by Wolves, Moonhaven, Westworld....more often than not most characters appear despondent, uninteresting, and emotionless. I haven't read the comic and I domt need to compare it to Stranger Things because it's strong enough on its own. My only concern is.. if it gets renewed. Night Sky got a very fast hook because no one watched it... but Paper Girls is 10x more engaging so you would think it's automatic but sci-fi always has to substantiate production costs.. which is unfair to fans of the genre.

If you want to impress your friends and tell them you binged an entire series in 15 minutes.. look no further. Anyone who complains that this is a waste of time when it takes no time to watch has serious issues.

Plenty of characters got almost no screen time.. that was my biggest issue.. and some got way more than most of us probably wanted. And yes there are scenes that are overly stupid...But. I was still thoroughly entertained...
