Their 14-year-old daughter, Alea, wants desperately to join them so she secures a spot as an intern for the Team. Alea’s boyfriend, Steven, believes the Discovery Team is too dangerous but Alea isn’t swayed.The family lives in the Outpost, a artificially created biome that allows humans to live in a large domed city on an alien planet. When Denis and Jann are outside the biome, they see a fast approaching weather cell that may spell doom for the biome and the humans that live inside.Outpost Zero Vol 1 has a good plot for young adult readers. There is a mystery but I don’t want to give any spoilers. The artwork is fine. The color palette of dusty blues and greens fits the mood inside a biome.

However, I disliked this quote by Alea regarding the head of the biome who took in her son after his parents were killed, “What I mean is, do you think the Chief would do anything for Sam? Even though he isn’t really hers?” Jann’s response is even more insensitive to adoptive families, “Well, I think—she cares about Sam, wants him to succeed. Loves him like her own son. But when a child’s yours from the start—when they come from you.there’s a bond you can’t get any other way. It’s just the way it is.” This discussion wasn’t necessary to the plot and will hurt people’s feelings.
I can’t recommend this book. 2 stars.Thanks to Image Comics and Edelweiss+ for an advance copy in exchange for an honest review. I was provided an ARC by the publisher via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.This is usually the part where I write a small summary of the book. But I don't know how right now.I guess the plot felt a bit messy to me and it took me a long time to grasp how the world worked and honestly I'm still not sure I got it.

I also didn't love the main character, Alea, and was much more interested by her friend, Lyss, and Sam.I really liked the art though and the plot was interesting once I got into the story.I'll probably check out the second volume. I finally found myself time to write few sentences to this. I was pleasantly surprised when I read first issue. This story is pretty interesting from the beginning to the end.
All characters are very likable, some pretty compelling. But it is not just them what made me to love this and continue with reading issue by issue. It's storytelling. Narration is excellent, art is amazing, coloring by Jean-Francois Beaulieu is beautiful. Plot progression is really slowly but not boring.
