Written by Chris Condon, Melissa Flores, Dave Wielgosz. Art by Sami Kivelä, Claire Roe, Riley Rossmo. Cover by Lee Bermejo. For millennia, mankind has yearned to explore the stars. Foolish humans—that was your first mistake! Like a stray space capsule thats unexpectedly escaped our solar system and is now cursed to rocket forward at ever-escalating velocities that will slowly reduce its crew to a slick film of goo, EC Comics proudly presents a new roster of callously cosmic tales positively oozing with pain, paranoia, and the pent-up regret of human ambition! To copilot this doomed survey of the stars, join writers Chris Condon (Ultimate Wolverine), Melissa Flores (Power Rangers Prime), and Dave Wielgosz (Batman: The Brave and the Bold) as they execute the logarithmic calculations that could save our explorers . . . only for the danger-defying artists Sami Kivelä (Abbott), Claire Roe (ECs Epitaphs from the Abyss), and Riley Rossmo (Harley Quinn) to bear witness to inescapable galactic calamity of their all-too-human hubris. Whoops! 32 pages, full color. Rated T+ Cover price $4.99.
