Ministry of Space
Ministry of Space


First : didn’t find a comic instance so here it is Second : Warren Ellis is a sex pest, so don’t buy his comics
Ministry of Space is a cool twist on the « what if X was first on the moon/space and not the American ». In this case : Britain
Edit : also any good comic suggestions is welcome
First... !comicbooks@lemmy.world says "Hello!"
Second, this kind of Anglo-Centric story is always fascinating to me.
I'd also suggest the six issue Albion:

And the Luther Arkwright books:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Adventures_of_Luther_Arkwright
The original story was 9 issues, which were re-printed by Dark Horse, then they had another 9 issue sequel:

Recently they released an original graphic novel bringing the story to a conclusion:

There are communities:
https://lemmyverse.net/communities?query=comics
!comics@lemmy.ml, though I avoid the lemmy.ml instance.
!eurographicnovels@lemm.ee. says that it was originally intended for Franco-Belgian stuff but opened up.
!comics@hexbear.net. I avoid hexbear.net.
!britishcomics@feddit.uk. I understand that the artist here is British.

We weren't the first into space. That was the Soviets.

Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin[a][b] (9 March 1934 – 27 March 1968) was a Soviet pilot and cosmonaut who, aboard the first successful crewed spaceflight, became the first person to journey into outer space.
The Moon, yes.
