"Dune, Frank Herbert's epic science-fiction masterpiece set in the far future amidst a sprawling feudal interstellar society, tells the story of Paul Atreides as he and his family accept control of the desert planet Arrakis. A stunning blend of adventure and mysticism, environmentalism, and politics, Dune is a powerful, fantastical tale that takes an unprecedented look into our universe, and is transformed by the graphic novel format. In the first volume of a three-book trilogy encompassing the original novel, Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson's adaptation retains the story's integrity, and Raul Allen and Patricia Martin's magnificent illustrations, along with cover art by Bill Sienkiewicz, bring the book to life for a new generation of readers." --

The Duke, his concubine, and his son go to Arrakis. The House Atreides has been given the spice rights to the planet by the Emperor. But there is a plot afoot...
It's part one of Dune in comic book form.
Grafica mi s-a părut foarte bună (e ceea ce înțeleg prin BD, nu manga sau DC/Marvel) și cu o subtilitate cromatică eficient folosită pentru a transmite stări. Adaptarea cărții e foarte ok pentru un mediu narativ destul de superficial in potențial (BD-ul) și nu numai că nu pierde mai nimic, dar pentru mine (care am citit cartea) e chiar exces de informație. Problema mea e că este exagerat de statică. Practic 90% din carte sunt dialoguri nenumărate, adică vizual doar fețe care vorbesc, fără mișcare, fără acțiune. Acest volum este în sine doar o mare expozițiune și nu e corect că se vinde separat de volumele 2 și 3, făcând parte dintr-un întreg. Nemira s-a temut să riște cu toate 3 simultan, dar riscă efectul invers: acest volum să dezamăgească și să ducă la evitarea cumpărării restului. În rezumat, vizual (arta grafică) e foarte reușită, narativ este un eșec, separată de celelalte 2 volume.
A rift develops between Duke Leto and Lady Jessica when she is ordered by the Bene Gesserit to secretly limit Noble House genetic selections for a possible arranged marriage for the young Paul and Leto discovers Jessica's manipulations. The rift widens when the Bene Gesserit forces Jessica back to their home world against the express demands of Leto that Jessica should not go. Meanwhile a vendetta against Emperor Shaddam IV by a radical family member from the leadership of CHOAM wipes out many heads of the Noble Houses when a terror plot against the Emperor is carried out. Leto considers requesting the Emperor grant him other worlds to be placed under Atreides control in lieu of the power vacuum created by the terrorist event while at the same time the terrorist leader contacts Leto and asks him to join with him in overthrowing the Emperor.
