Global Frequency, Vol. 1: Planet Ablaze by Warren Ellis
4.0
I picked this up as part of a pile of free comics. I've read several other Warren Ellis books and he certainly does have interesting premises. This volume is 3 discrete stories with only a couple reoccurring characters.
They did a good job matching the feel of the story to the artist and throwing in nice bits of acknowledgement that traditional comics aren't very good at being diverse. These characters are diverse and skilled and excellent at being part of the global rescue efforts.
It is apparent that it was written in 2004 because some of the tech didn't age well- like who still builds nuclear powered anything??
