Cover by Gianluca Pagliarani. Writer: Warren Ellis Art: Gianluca Pagliarani Where did the space heroes go to die? A major new series by Warren Ellis, the writer who reinvented science fiction in comics -- a retro-punk 'future of the past' where spaceships still belched smoke and arguments were still settled with laser pistols. Mary Raven has to die. Today might be Mary Raven's last day on Earth, trapped on the last spaceport where no-one cares about murder and the only real currency is fear. She has her dead father's raygun, and that's enough for space hero turned arms dealer Lightning Bowman to want her dead. But she also has her dead father's diary. And now she knows something no-one else in the settlement does...and they'll want her dead for that, too. Cover price $3.99.
