Wonderfully imaginative comic book

Planet Racers is the story of Godman Falcon, a renegade biker in a dangerous race tournament taking place on various worlds throughout the universe. As you can tell, this in no ordinary race. The bikes are super-duper-bikes, the courses are hundreds of miles long, the terrain is crazy and the fans are not just human. Alien races of all kinds come together to be witnesses to these insane spectacles. But a winning streak for Falcon comes to a grim end when a fan runs out in front of him and causes a fatal pile-up. Falcon is fired from his factory-sponsored team and shamed in the media. But a second chance soon comes around and Falcon slowly rises up the ranks once more and ends up head-to-head with his mortal enemy Tripper Nitro again. As all this goes on a bizarre subplot involving a self-aware computer seeking Universal domination becomes part of a big conspiracy and the reason why Godman was fired in the first place. From Peter Laird (TMNT) and Jim Lawson this graphic novel features brilliant black and white animation, good humor and loads of imagination. A real curious find for offbeat sci-fi fans. It's seriously hard to get these days and books 2 and 3 and even harder to come by. So grab one when you can.

Motorcycles, aliens and dinosaurs...

Way to go, Peter Laird and Jim Lawson! This book has some of the greatest elements in science fiction graphical novels. Good solid art, a relevant style, and exciting storyline. Reminiscent of Star Wars with its own techno-slang, gritty talk, and colorful characters. It made this reader think they were observing a real life alternate world.

This would make a great video game or cartoon!

A fun book about the future of motorcycle racing. Could this be the new world?
