I love it
Format: Paperback
I totally loved it for my first time. Green Lantern book. I'm glad I picked this one. I love the character; I want more of her. I just bought Absolute Green Lantern because of her. DC Comics, I don't know what else y'all gotta do with this character, the writer and artist who worked on this book, y'all need to bring them back, along with the letters that were in this book. Y'all need to bring those three back so they can do another run with this character. What are y'all waiting for? Beautiful, beautiful black characters. I loved it, awesome story. I want to know more about her.

Far Sector
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Far Sector by N.K. Jemisin and Jamal Campbell is an absolute masterpiece that grips you from the first page and doesn’t let go. Lantern Mullein is thrust into a mystery on a planet where emotions have been suppressed for centuries to prevent violence, only for someone to take drugs that restore feelings—leading to murder. The layers of this story, from its intricate worldbuilding to its mind-bending twists, kept me hooked, feeling like I was being pulled into an ocean of intrigue. The emotional rollercoaster had me in tears, and the combination of Jemisin’s incredible storytelling and Campbell’s stunning art creates a perfect, immersive experience. Every chapter is a visual and narrative feast, and the final act feels like a plunge into chaos as everything unravels in the most satisfying way. This is a 10/10, 5-star must-read that left me wishing I could stay in its beautifully crafted world forever. If you love gripping mysteries, complex worlds, and emotional depth, don’t hesitate—read this now!
