Graphic novels to read anywhere: DC Compact Comics collect DC’s bestselling, most iconic stories in a new size!

The first murder in 500 years. Twenty billion suspects. One hope.


For the past six months, newly chosen Green Lantern Sojourner “Jo” Mullein has been protecting the City Enduring, a massive metropolis of 20 billion people. The city has maintained peace for over 500 years by stripping its citizens of their ability to feel. As a result, violent crime is virtually unheard of, and murder is nonexistent. But that’s all about to change.

Hugo, Locus, and Nebula-winning author N.K. Jemisin thrusts readers into a stunning sci-fi murder mystery on the other side of the universe!

Collects Far Sector #1-12, the complete story.
N.K. Jemisin is an author living and writing in Brooklyn, New York. This is fortunate, as she enjoys subways, tiny apartments, and long walks through city parks. Her short fiction has been published in a number of magazines and podcast markets, and has been nominated for the Hugo and Nebula awards. Her novels have also been nominated for (collectively) the Hugo, the Nebula, the Tiptree, the Crawford, the Gemmell, the...hell, I lose track. I actually won the Locus Award for Best First Novel and the Romantic Times Reviewers' Choice Award.
