James Mishler,
Comic Buyer's Guide
"This is what Star Wars comic books should be like: fresh stories, living characters, non-stop banter, action, and adventure. Sean Wang has hit the space opera-starship crew genre straight on with this series...Wang makes these characters come to life. Moreover, the universe they inhabit is as varied and vast as those of the best science-fiction authors, with plenty of real-life touches that make it that much more believable...And the art is finely drawn: concise, yet rich, and perfect for the story. This top-notch space-opera comic book is 'must' reading for fans of the genre."
Peter Laird,

"Runners is one of those comics which, when you read it, you can clearly see is being done by somebody who loves what he's doing. Sean Wang puts a lot of heart and soul into this book, and it shows -- inventively cool aliens, meticulously thought-out spaceships and cityscapes, and a compelling storyline all combine to make Runners the best science fiction comic of recent vintage."

It's just another day in the life of reluctant smuggler Roka Nostaco and his ragtag alien crew as they struggle to complete a particularly dangerous run for the mob. Their adventure takes them from shootouts with pirates to ship-to-ship dogfights with ruthless bounty hunters, culminating in an all-out, three-way ship, cycle and foot chase through the streets of an alien space station. All the while, they also have to contend with a vengeful mercenary, a ghost from the past and a mysterious alien girl lying unconscious on their cargo bay floor!
