Sinossi
Le Isole di Los Angeles, 2089: l'umanità è totalmente assuefatta alla tecnologia; si vive, si ruba e si uccide alla ricerca di una dose di intrattenimento, spacciata da spietati gangster. Ma a chi si rivolgono questi signori del crimine quando devono far rispettare le proprie regole? Agli agenti Led Dent e Debbie Decay, cui verrà data la missione di abbandonare il familiare squallore di Los Angeles e indagare sull'area meno tecnologica della Terra: la Nazione-giardino di Tokyo. L'autore bestseller Rick Remender ("Black Science", "Low", "Deadly Class") e l'illustratore superstar Sean Murphy ("Chrononauts", "Punk Rock Jesus") con ai colori Matt Hollingsworth ("Hawkeye", "Sentinelle d'Inverno") ci regalano una riflessione sulla crescente dipendenza dalla tecnologia della società moderna.

This is very much a paint-by-numbers cyberpunk story. It's basically just a remix of tropes and ideas we've seen from other sources, both in terms of story and art. Maybe cyberpunk has fallen out of fashion enough for people to think this is original, I don't know, but I've seen all of this before,
I have appreciated some of Remenders work, but I have never absolutely enjoyed any of it. He can bring you interesting concepts and make you think about the current state of humanity, but his dialogue and character development needs work. I don't know if I would pick up another Remender book after t Leggi tutto
