      ""It''sa testament to Fraction and Chaykin''s talents that a book spanning such anintricate series of storylines can keep us consistently interested and involved;the sense of forward momentum that this story has built up is impressive. At thesame time, the emotional dimension of this story can''t be denied. ""SatelliteSam"" is about as much fun as you can have while feeling like you''re seeingsomething you shouldn''t, and one of the more involving, implicatingcomic-reading experiences to behad.""
