"Aldebaran" by Leo might be your Scavenger's Reign fix.

I'm gonna watch Scavengers Reign, it looks really interesting! I've never heard of Aldebaran but now I want to check it out. Great video!

[@literallybooks]

Thanks! Scavenger’s Reign seemed like a great chance to bring up Aldebaran and Leo’s related books.

You nailed Scavengers Reign, that it's so much more than (planetary) survival horror. I was drawn in in a very similar way, just enjoying the beautifully strange atmosphere and then blown away by the unfolding story. Pretty much my favourite contemporary animation. I hadn't heard of Aldebaran. I've loved Moebius's artwork for some time and still haven't got round to collecting (and reading) the comics! Look forward to doing that when I can and will be keeping an eye out for Aldebaran as well. Thanks!

[@literallybooks]

I think if you like Moebius (I love him) you’ll enjoy Aldebaran. European comics tend to have more mature characters and writing. Also look at Thorgal for fantasy. And anything by Hugo Pratt is worth trying. Especially Ballad of the Salt sea. I’ve certainly got a video stewing on him.

:) thanks so much for the video expressing exactly what I though, I'm a huge french comic book collector and I got the Aldebaran series since it came out and I just finished Scavenger and I had the same feeling, very similar, inspired for sure, I do recommend Aldebaran for sure to everyone.

[@literallybooks]

Fantastic. I’m glad someone else thought the same thing. I’m hoping to cover some more European comics. They feel strangely left behind compared to American, British and Japanese.

Weird that KZbin didn't show me this video at all when you posted it and then just recommended it when you just published your latest video. I've heard good things about this show!

[@literallybooks]

The algorithm has strong feelings about me (…its right behind me isn’t it?) and I trust its decisions implicitly! It is a good show. It felt like a show some who reads sci-fi could feel good about. Thanks for dropping in.

@@literallybooks It strangley keeps removing my comments for no apparent reason, so I get it!

[@Crabby303]

Thanks for the intro, must check Scavenger's Reign and Aldebaran out.

[@literallybooks]

If you end up liking either (or even if you don’t) check back in. 😁

@@literallybooks I certainly will, greets from Ireland :)

I loved Aldebaran series since it show up and I am also really amazed by the Scavengers Reign show, both shared the same basic ideas, Could you give some other comic series or books about aternate biology topic? I guess James Cameron's Avatar is quite similar but for some reason I find Aldebaran and SR far more complex and imaginative than the Cameron vision.

[@literallybooks]

Humm, well though they are more speculative biology art books with there’s “Expedition” by Wayne Douglas Barlowe, “After Man” by Dougal Dixon, and “The Teeming Universe” and its two sequels by Christian Cline. For comics I know of “Humanity Lost” by Callum Diggle but I haven’t read it (though I plan to). Though it might seem strange maybe “Naussica of the Valley of the Wind” manga by Hayao Miyazaki could fit. I just started reading it and it is supposed to have much more depth than the anime (which is also great). I can’t think of another off hand though it seems like there should be more. I’d like to cover them all in the near future.

I was at the bookstore and saw a novel that I couldn’t recall earlier. I’ve not read it (yet) but I think it fits the theme. “Darwinia” by Robert Charles Wilson
