It's very intriguing space adventure! I enjoyed it very, very much! The world building is spectacular, the characters quite interesting with distinctive designs and the battle scenes are very nicely done!

This book (a continuation of the "Kill Lock" mini-series, in which four incarcerated robotic beings struggle to survive in a merciless alien world) is an unconventional but glorious space opera slash family drama. Its creator, Livio Ramondeli, is a veteran of the publisher's "Transformers" comics, and has imbued the series' metallic beings with an inner life that few genre comics allow their characters. At the same time, he is more than capable of delivering moody yet spectacular landscapes, brutal fight scenes, and distinct character designs. One does not need to be familiar with the previous mini-series to appreciate this one (a pair of new characters helps readers acclimate -and breaks their hearts a little later), but readers of that first arc will appreciate the expanded scope, the complex world-building and the world-shaking changes to its status quo. Minor quibbles (the lettering of the Wraith leader can sometimes get too ornate and hard to parse) should not prevent you from missing out on one of 2022's standout sci-fi books.

The story is so intriguing and captivating you'll be up late because you won't want to put it down. I can't recommend it highly enough.
