Description
In the 23rd century, humans and Sandjarrs are allowed to join an intergalactic multiracial organization set up 8,000 years before. The humans are seen as a belligerent, underdeveloped race by the other members of the organization and have been kept out of it until now. The Sandjarrs had stayed out of interplanetary politics until a war between themselves and the humans broke out. Now Caleb, a human, and Mezoke, a Sandjarr, are paired up and trained as special agents to keep the intergalactic show more peace. This is a controversial and historic alliance, and a lot of people are watching them. Their first mission is to keep war from breaking out between humans and Javlodes on the planet Senestam. show lessTags

Kind of interesting. This is definitely Sci-fi of the star wars cantina variety. It can be fun, but something about the mixing of hundred of different sentient species in any sort of environment always seems a little off to me.
I did like the two main characters and I will read the next volume.

De la bonne SF au scénario facilement compréhensible mais néanmoins intéressant. Une intrigue politique matinée d'action servie par un dessin léché. Il est à noter que la mise en couleur est simple et de bon goût ce qui n'est pas toujours le cas dans les BD de SF.

Orbital is zowel het machtscentrum van de Confederatie als een doorgang naar andere tijd-ruimtes.
Deze gigantische Crop Gate is ook het vertrekpunt van de agenten Caleb Swany en Mezoke Izzua, leden van de IDD, een organisatie die de vrede tussen de werelden probeert te handhaven...
B e g i n h o l o s e s s i e.
Uw doel is tweeledig:
uitzoeken wat de piloten is overkomen en een compromis helpen vinden tussen de Jävloden en de mensenkolonisten.
