Elfquest #13
The Rebels
Just a bunch of kids, right?
Not likely. They're not all entirely human. They've got a serious beef with the planet's government. And they're young, but they've experienced things we can still only imagine - space travel, the colonization of other worlds, the disappearance of the elves...
Humans living in this future Elfquest era know that the elves were truly flesh-and-blood beings, not legends. There is even proof. So where did the elves disappear to? And more important, why?
Join Cosmo, Scorch, Chandra, Rosie and Shimmer - the Rebels - as they try to sniff out the answer!
(This volume reprints issues 1-6 of the Rebels series.)

I actually read all twelve issues in the ElfQuest online archive. I was getting into the story and then, once again, they wound it down without answering any of the questions that they had built up during the process. Did they ever get Rose to the High Ones? What did Jinx have to do with them? Did they ever get beyond being rebels? Looks like we'll never know, and that irritates me.

Read online at ElfQuest.com for my Great ElfQuest Read of 2025, but I do own most of this series as single issues and had Read those when they came out.
I think I am giving this 5 stars partly in response to how much I've disliked a lot of the aEQ side series. This series is such a fantastic breath of fresh air - cool characters, fantastic, consistent, full-color art, and an intriguing story with lots of enticing callbacks to past Two Moons history. It's just great.

Contains issues 1 - 6 of Rebels.
Set in the future of the World of Two Moons, the same time period as Jink. Opens with three teenagers, a robot, and a human-sized preserver, on a ship running from a military craft. Through flashbacks, we see how they met each other. Then we follow them as they try to figure out their place in the universe. Or something. I was a little unclear on their primary motivation, honestly.

Man, I did not care for Elfquest in Space at all.

It's not so much the story is bad or terrible, but it mostly just isn't my thing. I value any story line that adds to the world of two moons; but this just wasn't a hit in anyway for me. Perhaps I am to much of a loyalist to the Wolfriders and EQ's original characters. But it isn't a book I would purchase or added to my EQ collection. It's worth a read if your looking to continue the story of the world of two moons, its occupants and hints here and their of elfish mystery. I'm glad I read it to add to the Jinks storyline but overall I didn't grip me in anyway like the originals.

It had its better than ok bits, but over all it was just ok.
Worth reading in the overall view of the series, which can be found here: http://www.elfquest.com/gallery/Onlin...

There are no elves, but this is a fun space-opera. There are plenty of ships, laser beams, and action. I liked it.
