Comics Review: Failure To Launch: A Tour of Ill-fated Futures
![Cover of Failure to Launch, featuring a giant mecha falling with flames coming off the back, with several people on and around it, possibly attempting to repair it or sabotage it.](https://i0.wp.com/skiffyandfanty.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/FailureToLaunch_Cover_WEB.jpg?fit=647%2C1024&ssl=1)
Failure To Launch, in its theme, structure, and overall approach – the promotional material uses the phrase “bite-sized ‘pop-history’ vignettes” – reminds me a lot of the Big Book Of series published by Paradox Press (an imprint of DC Comics), between 1994 and 2000.
