Isabel Vila isabelvila — I can't tell what was stylistic and what was just lost in the translation process. I liked it. I could tell it was intentionally weird. However, some of it seemed like a computer was talking to me.

Eugenia Dorn _endorn — Halo Jones is an ordinary 50th century teenager living in The Hoop, a floating housing project for the unemployed and alien imigrants. This futuristic ghetto has got the usual problems of gangs, unreliable amenities and no prospects, but it is bearable because of her two flatmates and her kindly landlady. So when tragedy strikes, Halo is galvanised into taking charge of her life. She signs on as a stewardess aboard the luxury space liner “The Clara Pandy” and becomes involved with a series of adventures, by turns comic and tragic. Ten years later she ends up broke and despairing on a backwater planet, until a chance meeting with an old friend leads her to sign up for the military. Her action-packed tour of duty in mankind's endless interplanetary war makes her a hardened veteran but she still carries her ambitions within her. “The Ballard of Halo Jones” is to my mind writer Alan Moore's greatest contribution to Britain's famous 2000AD comic, in fact the series is one of the biggest highlights of his first British period. Given that that era includes “V for Vendetta” and “Miracleman”, I know that's high praise indeed. It arose from Alan Moore's desire to write an alternative to the testosterone filled strips that were 2000AD's stock in trade such as “Judge Dredd” and “Rogue Trooper”. He wanted a heroine who wasn't a girl with “a big gun and an extra Y chromosome”. Halo Jones has no special abilities, she isn't particularly strong or sassy. She's an everyday woman forced into extraordinary events. At first the majority of the readership didn't warm to the strip, but the editor recognised it's qualities and that Moore and Gibson were very enthused about their creation. So he commissioned a second run and it was here that the readers really began to click with what the comic was trying to do. Moore and Gibson had envisaged a nine book series that would follow her from being a teenager to an elderly woman, but after the third book Moore fell out with the publisher Fleetway over the rights to the characters he had developed for them and has since refused to write any more. Ian Gibson has occasionally painted a new Halo Jones artwork that gives a hint about her later adventure, be it as a rich merchant or a slave girl. This volume collects together all the strips that were originally published in 2000AD, prefaced by a new introduction by artist Ian Gibson. The original three book reprint has long been out of print. At the time of its release the book caused a revival of interest in the character. Gibson is fantastic artist, great at producing both SF landscapes and memorable characters. As Moore himself observes “His women are fantastic”. Fantastic because they are full of personality. Often attractive yes, but rather than the pneumatic goddess with gravity defying breasts which are common in comic strips, Halo and her friends have a variety and a reality to them. The two men put a lot of work into the world of the 50th century, devising not just its look but its politics, slang and culture. The result is a detailed convincing future. The story has the complexity of a novel and reading it in this collected edition I can appreciate the Moore's impressive use of characterisation, the very British humour, the moments of sadness and even shock moments of horror. Moore delighted in mixing in references to classic literature and popular culture too. All ably depicted by Gibson. The original pages has been excellently reproduced on good quality paper, along with the strip's occasional cover art. The opening segment in The Hoop is fairly comedic until near the end. Her adventures as a stewardess are an even balance between the comic – her crush on a handsome crew-member, a date with a young boy, and the dramatic – a hijack and a secret occupant in one of the cabins. But it hits a highlight in the story of her asexual cabin mate which is funny and tragic simultaneously. The final series depicting her life in the army followed by post-traumatic stress is definitely the darkest yet highlighted by some great jokes. It's as sophisticated as any of Moore's more famous work. This is a great piece of science fiction with brains and heart that's for anyone who likes an good story.
