Rigel and the Star Teens follows the lives of ordinary emerging adults living in a small town, located on the most remote human-settled planet in the colonized galaxies. Drawing major artistic inspiration from Dan DeCarlo’s work for Archie Comics, Kou Yaginuma’s Twin Spica, and Tatsuo Yoshida’s Speed Racer, Rigel is a light science fiction story about growing up.
