Boh, proviamo.

[Nightmist]

Bei disegni, mi sa che gli darò una chance.

[HCPunk]

I disegni, come in Naomi, sono molto belli, ma il progetto mi "spaventa" un po'.. Ma aspetto più info.

[Kenshiro]

Progetto interessante, magari si va di TP se meritevole.
Comunque le Lanterne ormai sono come i Robin, anzi, li superano.

[Azrael]

Non so che pensare, valutero' alla conclusione

'Rama Rating: 10 out of 10

Delivering on every ounce of its well-deserved hype, Far Sector #1 is a winner on every level, from N.K. Jemisin's exemplary worldbuilding to Jamal Campbell's absolutely stunning artwork and character designs. This is what a Green Lantern story should be: rich and multidimensional, filled with intrigue and a Lantern's emotional exploration of their place in the corps. Set in the far-flung metropolis of Platform Ever Forward, Far Sector #1's Lantern is newcomer Sojourner "Jo" Mullein. Mullein is new to the Corps, and Platform Ever Forward is new to having a Lantern: they're the most remote Space Sector to ever be assigned one, and the last place most of its residents might expect to need one.

The people of Platform Ever Forward have been free of violent crime for hundreds of years — just as long as they've all been free of any emotions at all, a scientific adaptation that, until now, has prevented the kind of violent conflict that led to the near-total destruction of their world. Now Mullein is expected to solve the kind of crime Platform never thought they'd see again with the assistance of a police force that has no concept of how to investigate it, all to stop a conspiracy that Platform's leaders may know more about than they're letting on.

If you're unfamiliar with N.K. Jemisin going into Far Sector, please let this issue convince you to check out her prose work, particularly The Inheritance Trilogy — Jemisin's worldbuilding is almost unparallelled, and she delivers once again here. The world of Platform and its inhabitants are immediately captivating, and Jemisin does a deft job introducing both the world and the central conflict of Far Sector #1 all at once in a way that never feels rushed or overloaded. If anything, I only wish Jemisin was given more pages to work with, as Far Sector comes to a bit of a jarring close, cutting out with Mullein literally in mid-punch.

Jemisin, artist Jamal Campbell, and letterer Deron Bennett are a dream team here: the character designs are distinctive and captivating, from the flashy @At to the elfin Noh and the stern keh-Topli. Each has their own distinct visual aesthetic, rich cultures consistent from race to race in a way that still allows any two characters from the same race to be visually distinctive in their own right. It's easy to keep track of who's who here — extremely helpful given the amount of information the team manages to pack into a debut issue.

This is a crime thriller and political drama rolled into one, delivered in a gorgeous visual package that should win Campbell any number of awards. Jemisin's script is well-paced and exciting, the characters engaging, and the mystery aspect captivating, but it's through Campbell's illustrations that Far Sector #1 truly sings. His colors are stunning, giving the city of Platform Ever Forward a moody, cyberpunk vibe without ever muddying the waters that the finer details of his linework are obscured; there's a tendency in noir to color too darkly, interpreting moody as too grimy to emote through, but Campbell creates that tension and unease in a way that never hinders the subtle expressiveness of a world that can't even feel what it's trying to express anymore. This is one of the best-looking comics I've read in awhile, with absolutely hands-down some of the most captivating character designs I've ever seen.

Far Sector #1 is just a flat-out great comic. Jemisin, Campbell, and Bennett deliver a Green Lantern story that any reader can dive into, regardless of how familiar you are with the far-reaching lore of the Corps. This one has snuck in just under the wire as one of the best debuts of the year — regardless of whether you're a die-hard Lantern fan or a sci-fi fan curious to check out something new, Far Sector #1 has something you'll love.

Vabbè io provo perché sono una fan girl delle Lanterne

[Catcher]

Letto #1
Niente di che, ambientazione galattica e eroina presa pari a pari da quella di Star Trek Discovery e che per il momento non ha uno spessore di qualche tipo.
Le Lanterne per ora sembrano c'entrare ben poco, nel senso che non c'è traccia di elementi tipici della serie.
Disegni gradevoli.

Letto #1
Eeeermm...WTF?
Ero SICURO di aver letto che la protagonista fosse una semplice umanoide, invece viene proprio dalla Terra?
Ma perchè???
Ho capito che Geoff ha giustificato la cosa, ma ormai avremmo dovuti fermarci con Jess, almeno per un beeeeeel po'!
Poi tra quella merdaccia di Teen Lantern su Young Justice e ora qua...nel giro di qualche mese, abbiamo due pg che spuntano quel PC box, vabbo...

Questo primo numero non mi ha detto niente di niente tho, ed è un peccato perchè avevo anche un certo hype.
Molto belle le matite.

Allora, premetto che la storia mi ha già preso, è interessante tutto sommato. Ambientazione, razze diverse,..tutto ok.
I disegni, come detto quella volta per Naomi, sono sempre belli.
Ma è il fatto che ci sia l'ennesima GL umana (cit.MoS) che mi fa storcere il naso..Non ne vedo il motivo (o più semplicemente sono troppo "conservatore" in campo GL).

Già Jess c'ha messo un'eternità per essere "degna".. Dopo arriva la Teen GL e ora questa..

Leggerò comunque per curiosità

[HCPunk]

#2

Ho apprezzato molto di più questo numero, però sono un po'..stranito. Nel senso, mi sta conquistando pian piano. 
Due sono le "tematiche" qui, il caso e quindi le indagini da detective (se va avanti così meglio chiamare Bats ) e il relazionarsi con le altre specie aliene/il capire le sensazioni e le emozioni ecc..Oh è strano
Poi la scena del ballo..non sono uno che cerca storie "smielate" ma ammetto che mi è piaciuta, è stato qualcosa in più..

Disegni e soprattutto colori sempre belli!
