What if space wasn’t the final frontier, but a dead end?

In Bad Space, Scott Base reinvents science fiction as a darkly comic reflection of our collapsing world. Forget heroic journeys and galaxy-saving crews — here, the robots are burnt out, the humans disillusioned, and the void offers more irony than answers. This isn’t sci-fi for escapists — it’s sci-fi for the end of the road.

Sharp, existential, and brutally funny, Bad Space turns the genre on its head and holds up a cracked mirror to our times. This first print collection brings together the most iconic strips from the series, including the terrifying short story, The Suit plus never-before-seen pages and exclusive artwork. A collector’s edition for readers who like their dystopias weird, their humor dark, and their truths uncomfortable.

For fans of bleak futures, cosmic absurdity, and comics that bite back.

Bad Space Volume 1 is the first printed collection of Scott Base’s cult sci-fi webcomic — a dark, satirical take on space exploration, artificial intelligence, and humanity’s uncertain future. This black and white comic book blends existential humor with sharp social commentary, perfect for fans of alternative comics, indie science fiction, and artists like Simon Hanselmann, Michael DeForge or Johnny Ryan. Bad Space is a must-have for readers seeking intelligent graphic novels with a unique voice.
