Hull Breach
The galaxy is incredible. They're too busy working to notice.
The working stiffs aboard the Milk Run try to keep an ordinary cargo ship flying through very non-ordinary space problems.
Prepare for Turbulence
The Milk Run is a small independent freighter hauling odd cargo through an alarmingly dangerous galaxy full of warships, pirates, bizarre species, cosmic phenomena, impossible hazards, and other people's galaxy-changing adventures. Will the cargo survive? More importantly, will the client pay on time?
"Rookie" Erin Walsh is still green and finding out about this zany galaxy. "Captain" Frank Mercer has spent decades recalibrating his definition of alarming. Zix is an alien, which means some of the supposedly impossible things Erin encounters are, from his perspective, embarrassingly ordinary.
Meet the cast
Frank Mercer
Owner and captain of the Milk Run. A veteran freighter operator who fears nothing in this galaxy... except bill collectors.
Zix
Veteran alien crewmember. Practical, unflappable, and frequently the only one aboard who already knows whether the bizarre thing outside is dangerous, edible, or just annoying.
