Description

An other-planet mirror of racial violence and injustice on earth (particularly in the US), told with a veil thinner than paper and a hand heavier than Mjölnir. I’m not a big fan of Green Lantern books in general because they’re usually pretty bad but Far Sector was especially terrible even by those already-low standards.

This is a dense tale full of rich detail, and I had to go slowly and reread a few sections to absorb it all—and every second was time well spent. But my attempts at tracking the characters' emotional states pulled me out of the story a few too many times. Far Sector is a miniseries in the DC Comics Green Lantern franchise, published from 2019 to 2021 by DC's imprint DC's Young Animal. It has enough to make this a black label book, but as they are not overused, the speech seems more natural and authentic. I was also dazzled by the trio of races Jemisin dreamed up -- carnivorous plant-people, "optionally corporeal" indentured AP, aerial predatory primates -- and each one's world, buildings, food, and attire.

As with any superhero tale, good prevailing over evil after a few feints and shoot-'em-ups is table stakes, so nothing feels particularly fraught, and it's not really that satisfying when everything falls into place at the end.

But the three alien races here all look so human that telling them apart is rather difficult despite how different they are supposed to be: dragon-like, plant-based, and artificial intelligence. The parallels to the “real” world are not just there, they are blindingly obvious and heavily explained, with the overall impression of preaching to the choir. Un mystery, praticamente, in cui un investigatore, che arriva da fuori e del tutto estraneo perfino al modo di pensare delle razze aliene, deve vedersela con le consuete storie di potere, corruzione e ribellione.

Also I like how the author explores the past of Jo and how it informs her present and the way she was chosen by a guardian was fun and does also show how she is different from other earth GLs and also being very loud mouth and compassionate, that was a fun addition and I can't wait to read more of her stuff in future GL comics.

In questo contesto, la Lanterna Verde Sojourner Mullein (terrestre) si trova a gestire le indagini relative a un omicidio (reato che da quelle parti non si vedeva da centinaia di anni) e alle sue conseguenze.Its an intriguing book with amazing concepts and thought out worlds and people but honestly towards half way of the book it starts to meander and towards the end gets boring sort of and the investigation and reveals while has some fun reveals feels a bit too cliché but then again you can consider it as good too because Jo doesn't do the whole punch first, ask questions later.

Syzn “Siz” of the Cliffs, by the Streaking Ice: Peace Accountant and head of the City Enduring Peace Department (CEPD) of Platform Ever Forward. I will say, I appreciate that she was invested in immersing herself in the culture and understanding the people there.Marth reveals that he used the money he made from selling Switchoff to hire the remainders of the Cloud Kratocracy as a contingency plan since he suspected Glory to be planning something.
