É um plot muito interessante e tem um arte eficiente. Alguns detalhes poderiam ser mais bem feitos em termos de arte e roteiro, mas vale uma lida. ( )

it's really good and plausible and the humans are very humany and this means it's a bit dark for me these days. ( )

Goodreads Synopsis:
PORT OF EARTH: Imagine if aliens came to Earth not in war or peace, but with a business deal: open up a spaceport here on Earth in exchange for advanced technology. But when our alien visitors break Port restrictions and wreak havoc in our cities, it falls to the newly formed Earth Security agents to hunt down and safely deport the dangerous rogue aliens back to the Port of Earth. A gritty sci-fi action thriller from new comic book writer Zack Kaplan (ECLIPSE) and Andrea Mutti (REBELS, STAR WARS, BATMAN ETERNAL, PROMETHEUS)

My Review:
I'd like to say first that I really enjoyed the artwork in this book, the mostly black and white with a little bit of colour here and there really stood out for me, and it worked well with the story. I was excited to start this from the moment I got it, and the description made it sound like something I would really like, and I did.

When the aliens came, they didn't come in peace or violence, they came to make a trade. Because their ships run on water, they needed a base in between wherever they're going and home, to fill up their tanks, and Earth seemed like the perfect place to do so. When Earth built the port, they were given technology to give them unlimited power, efficiently ending the energy crisis. Most visitors aren't seen outside their ships, and after a few years, almost three thousand ships have landed, and after an incident, almost as many people have died.

I really enjoyed reading this book, and I'm glad I got the chance to check it out. It follows two ESA soldiers, being followed by drones filming for a documentary. They encounter a rogue alien, and are forced to try to deal with it without violence, even though it's destructive. The story is thrilling and I didn't want to put it down once i started reading it. Set near San Francisco, this book is completely unique when compared to the other comics I've read about aliens and I'm glad I got the chance to read it. I can't wait to see what's in store for the next volume, definitely check this out if you get the chance!

Here's a link to the book on amazon.
