So what makes a space fantasy comic a space fantasy comic? Essentially, it’s a blending of science fiction and fantasy, though since I’m specifically referring to space fantasy rather than science fantasy, I’ll also be focusing mainly on comics and graphic novels set in an outer space / alien setting that also utilize magic or the supernatural. As for what fits into that genre, it can be a bit up to interpretation. For instance, do all stories with aliens count as space or science fantasy since we haven’t discovered any form of alien life yet? I would argue sometimes yes and sometimes no. A book like Andy Weir’s Project Hail Mary, for instance, is so concerned with scientific plausibility that I wouldn’t label it as space fantasy whereas something like Escaping Exodus, where humans make their homes out of gigantic spacefaring creatures, definitely is. And when it comes to comics, the rules are similarly loosey-goosey. But these nine space fantasy comics are as good a place as any to start.
