Dr. David Loren PHD, a former whiz-kid, has been working for the military for most of his life in a DARPA led think tank. However he’s no longer comfortable creating fantastic pieces of machinery that are stunningly efficient killing machines which has lead him to become rather lackadaisical towards his work.
The mark of a good-storyteller is the ability to build a rich world seemingly with little effort. Whilst there have, so far, only been two issues of Planetoid, there is more than enough evidence to suggest this is a skill Ken Garing does not lack.
A few months ago, when there were rumours that a ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ film had moved into ‘active development’ stage, I got excited. When it was announced at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con I got decidedly excited, and for more than the usual ‘seeing some of my favourite characters on the big screen’ reasons. I am quite certain that it means that we shall be seeing a new type of comic-book film adaptation, and that, I believe, is something to get rather excited about.
