AFAR: Boetema

In a fantastical post-industrial desert, fifteen-year-old Boetema suddenly develops the ability to astral project to other planets while she sleeps. When she accidentally gets a young man hurt on a planet light-years away, she must figure out a way to project back to save him. On her own world, Boetema's two parents have temporarily left her and her thirteen-year-old brother, Inotu, to make a living as salt shepherds. Left to their own devices, the two siblings must flee across a dangerous desert when Inotu gets into trouble with a threatening cyborg bodyguard. As Boetema visits amazing planets and encounters vibrant cultures, she must confront her mistakes and learn to trust in Inotu as she navigates her newfound abilities.

    1. Comic book female feet are a hit-or-miss to me, some of are decent like DC and Marvel but others are not.

  2. For me, it is also okay. Not bad, not good, just... well, okay. I'm not that big of a fan of this sketchy art style in modern western comics.

    1. What is it that you hate about modern stuff? What timeline do you prefer in comics if it is not recent? What Western comics are you preferring?
