Looks good from this, one thing the picture of the Vargr doenst seem to match the description with regards to its teeth why the muzzle thingy ?

Ans that was taken of him on a good day. I'd hate to see him on a bad day ...

The description in the text says that his teeth are capped and the caps are what impairs his speech. There is no mention of a muzzle.
But then, the Vargr has a GUN... where did he get that in prison????

Maybe he stole it from a guard while escaping?
Maybe its his tooth brush?
Maybe it was given to him to sort out that crazy rat infestation in the prison?
Maybe its the GM's decision on why he has a gun

personally I think the picture is pure crap, It has made me think twice about buying prison planet.
I realise that this may not be a popular thing to say but the guys at mongoose should get feedback from gamers on things they like/don't like, how else are products going to improve. Without feedback mongoose can't look after the fans. On the positive side the background picture behind the text on page 4 is excellent and very atmospheric. The artist really captures the air of despair in the prisoners leaving the ship. It's more of that we need. Drop the bad pics 'the vargr' and leave the others in. I would definitely order the product then.

I'm sure they are. They improved the character art in the corebook after all.
I don't think the Vargr picture is bad, I do think that he could do with losing the gun though - he's not exactly going to be running around with that in a prison. (and quite why someone that crazy isn't going to be under heavy sedation, I don't know).

it's just about believable in a marvel comic not traveller...
Like the theme - handy to have an adventure for when the players get nailed!
And I've figured out the gun - its the one the Vargr just took off the guard who muzzled him (the one who put that on drew the short stick)
On the art work - love the first page!
The cell-block scene while well done is too present day IMHO not to mention inconsistent with the monitor scene on pg 56.
The Vargr is good - though matted fur, chipped claws, 'scars', would add character.

(the one who put that on drew the short stick)If you look at those back canines, he hasn't been capped yet...
