~ We're sorry we couldn't wait for you to evolve. We've been so lonely - in all our travels, your species is the only one that looked to have the potential for civilisation. The galaxy is yours this cycle - care for it. All our love, the Qohathoth. ~
Two thousand years ago, humanity started to colonise the galaxy. Two centuries later, they encountered one very lost Aquaan colony ship, the first aliens they'd ever met. Harbourmaster has spaceships and genetic engineering and aliens, but mostly it's about evolution and love.
Harbourmaster is a science fiction comic that can probably be directly blamed on Theodore Sturgeon's Venus Plus X. That said, it's not Venus Plus X: The Graphic Novel, though it does have hermaphrodites. And when we say 'love', we don't usually mean 'romance'. Mostly it's about Gilou and Tal.
