GEMINI #1 - THE FULL ISSUE

Miss Jay Faerber’s latest new Image project Gemini when issue #1 shipped earlier this month? We’ve got you covered. Image and Faerber have hit us up with the entire first issue.

The solicitation for the issue reads:

GEMINI #1 (OF 5)
story JAY FAERBER, art & cover JON SOMMARIVA & FCOLOR
32 PAGES, FC, $3.50

From the creator of DYNAMO 5 and NOBLE CAUSES comes Image’s newest superstar: Gemini, a super-hero whose identity is so secret, even he doesn’t know what it is!

Dan Johnson is just a normal guy with a normal job... or so he thinks. What he doesn’t know is that a secret organization is using him as their weapon against crime. Dan Johnson is Gemini!

Gemini #2 is in stores 06/18.

I like the art it looks almost Saturday morning cartoonish.

Awesome! Very kinetic, entertaining and fast -paced! Pure heroic adrenaline and can't wait for number two! Excellent job, Jay and company!

I actually bought this and I don't know how I feel about it. The premise is interesting and the end of the issue was really surprising, but... I dunno. Something felt off.

I didn't get a strong sense of what this story is really about: the poor guy being forced to lead a double life or the people forcing him to... Well, both, duh. But it felt a little too much like The Truman Show or something... Especially the boob line.

Well, he's either an unwitting slave or he made an agreement with whomever gave him the costume (I would have said "powers" instead but it doesn't look like he really has any other than jumping around really high and getting his head blown clean off).

Can't say I'm impressed with this one so I'll just stick to Noble Causes and Dynamo 5.

Looks interesting enough, Faerber always does cool stuff with super-hero books. I like how he, Kirkman and other writers are creating a very flexible and fun universe for Image, I love seeing Venture and Invincible as well as the Nobles show up in other books like Dynamo 5, hope Gemini shows up in Invincible, that could be pretty great.

This looks really good... I don't know why I missed it the other week, but thanks Newsarama for posting... I'll have to buy a copy next time I'm at the comic book store, if they have any.

I picked this up and it was a really cool first issue. Liked the art even though at first I didn't think I would. The story is interesting but the ending was like wow what the hell. Good book all round.

Gonna have to check this out.

Not crazy about the art, though, but the story seems interesting enough.

I like the art too. The character looks like a cross between the old Lev Gleason Daredevil (now in Project:Superpowers) and Mercurio the 4-D Man (old forgotten Thor and Captain Mar-vell foe).
