174. Disney Comics, 2014. GRAPHIC NOVEL. Language: G, Mature Content: PG,
Violence: PG.
It’s 2125 and two students from the Magellan Space Academy,
Stella Macri and Thomas Ford have been selected to join a team of space
explorers on a special time-travel mission one day into the future. On their
way, however, a malfunction on the ship causes a probe to be released
unexpectedly. When the group of explorers gets to “the future,” they discover
everything has changed and they’re considered criminals for changing history
detrimentally. When Captain Cole and the other explorers are banished to the
past for their “crimes,” it is up to Stella and Thomas to save the day. Will
they succeed?
The illustrations are colorful and detailed, but the story
is a little implausible and the characters are one-dimensional. Nevertheless,
fans of Disney, graphic novels, and the ride Space Mountain will most likely
enjoy reading this book. EL. OPTIONAL. Reviewer: Kira M, Youth Services
