ABOUT

Seven-year-old Sarya is the galaxy's worst nightmare: a Human. Fortunately, she's the last of her kind.

Based on the critically-acclaimed novel The Last Human, The Last Human in a Crowded Galaxy is a whimsical and endearing space opera graphic novel about identity, free will, and found family.


Sarya the Daughter doesn't know she's a Human, and that's better for everyone. Just ask her adoptive mother, the terrifying spider-like alien known as Shenya the Widow. Or don't, because Shenya the Widow would do anything to keep her adopted daughter's identity a secret. That's why they've come to Watertower, the notoriously low-security border station at the edge of the galaxy-spanning Galactic Network.  

But Humans are curious beings, and Sarya is no exception. When she sets out on a quest to find out what she is, she triggers a station-wide security crisis. Now hunted by a powerful Network Auditor and the equally formidable Shenya the Widow, it's only a matter of time until a crisis becomes a disaster.

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
