When all is said and done, Far Sector #8continues to deliver a magnificent story. It both resolves the previous issues cliffhanger and setups up the next storys plot. All this while delivering all the power and emotion you could ask from a powerful lead character. With only four issues left to go, this story has me itching to enter the final leg of the journey.

This issue continues the streak of near perfection that Far Sector operates in. It's interesting, prescient, and cooler than any other comic you could buy right now. Read Full Review

Far Sector is an amazing series, one of the best of the year. Far Sector #8 delivers another chapter in a police procedural that's infused with socio-politico commentary. This is a series that's "in the now," not afraid to tackle current issues and real-world discussions. Most importantly, it entertains while doing so. With each issue, the series makes the case for "best of 2020." Read Full Review
The eighth chapter of this Green Lantern series adds even more deep complexities and political intrigue to this already thrilling comic. Read Full Review
Overall, Far Sector #8 did not let us down for showing us exactly why Jo would be disgusted to realize she's facing the same kind of bureaucracy nonsense she has experienced back home on Earth. Read Full Review
Jamal Campbell's art is fantastic. Every page is vibrant and beautifully detailed. A great looking issue where everything from the action to the character moments work. Read Full Review
We're deep into the woods of this complex alien story, but strong artwork and strong character work keep this series firmly in place. Read Full Review
In a just world, Jo will become a fan favorite down the line and make an appearance in more properties. For now, we'll enjoy her being a somewhat-rogue Lantern that fights for those who can't fight for themselves. Read Full Review
There's simply nothing quite like Far Sector out there right now, and if you give it a chance you likely won't regret it. Read Full Review
I really like the plot and the art is otherworldly. Man oh man the dialogue. I get that some teenagers talk like this but hence the word teenagers. These are adults and aliens and they sound like 12 year olds. It makes for a jarring experience and sometimes you just shake your head and just don’t like the characters because of it.
Same complaints as always.
The best part of the issue is the George Carlin quote it's named after. The same problem I have had with this series continues here. I'm not invested and I could really use a character that I actually like. Jo is *fine*, but she doesn't really stand out to me. The rest of characters are even worse off. The art is good, even if I wish the artist were given something exciting to do. As far as I'm concerned, Jamal Campbell has been wasted.
I don't know which is worse the writing or the artwork. This book can't be canceled soon enough.
