Kid Eternity (1993-)
Comic - Sci-Fi
He died as a child, decades before his time, and spent the next 30 years in Hell thanks to a mix-up in the afterlife's bureaucracy. Then a miracle occurred, and the Kid escaped perdition for Earth. His mission: become the new Messiah. His gift: the ability to summon any human, god or devil who ever existed—or who anyone once believed existed—with the cry of a single word… "ETERNITY!" Redeeming humanity, however, is trickier than it seems. From America's forgotten highways to the endless realms of cyberspace, from the clamor of TV talk shows to the chaos of insane asylums, from the siren song of sex to the menace of mad gods, a whole host of forces—good, bad and ugly—have united to thwart the utopian efforts of this savior in sunglasses. Fortunately, he has a little help from his friends—including a hacker, a hobo, Zeus, Freud, Neal Cassady, Marilyn Monroe and many more. When it comes to saving the world, not even the power of Eternity can do it alone… KID ETERNITY BOOK ONE collects the first nine issues of legendary writer Ann Nocenti and superstar artist Sean Phillips' classic VERTIGO saga of magic, madness and the strangeness of the twentieth-century psyche.
Ocean/Orbiter - Deluxe Edition
Ocean/Orbiter - Deluxe Edition
Comic - Sci-Fi
Leaving the Earth is a dangerous business, and probably always will be. But in the long run, the greater danger is not leaving - something that legendary comics writer Warren Ellis makes vacuum-clear in this pair of suspense-filled space adventures, collected here for the first time in a single volume. In OCEAN, the acclaimed art team of Chris Sprouse and Karl Story joins Ellis for a journey to the research station Cold Harbor orbiting the Jovian moon Europa, where the discovery of ancient artifacts beneath the frozen crust sets off a power struggle that threatens to expand into a full-scale holocaust for all of humanity. In ORBITER, Ellis and renowned artist Colleen Doran investigate the mystery of the space shuttle Venture, whose disappearance in orbit effectively ended the United Statesquote manned space program. When Venture reappears ten years later with new instrumentation, new engines, and an outer covering of something very much like human skin, a team of specialists must discover where she and her one surviving crew member have been - and how sand from Mars got in her landing gear. Complete with Ellis's trademark blend of canny characterization and sterling storytelling, OCEAN/ORBITER: THE DELUXE EDITION also features an afterword from the author and a special section of preliminary art and character designs from Sprouse, Doran, and cover artist Michael Golden.
