A NEW SCIENCE FICTION EPIC FROM THE MIND OF STAN LEE!
From
the mind of legendary comics creator Stan Lee, the architect of the Marvel
Universe, comes Alliances: Orphans, a brand-new original graphic novel set in
the New York Times best-selling Alliances universe, co-written by Lee with Luke
Lieberman (Red Sonja) and Ryan Silbert (The Coldest Case). This cosmic adventure
features fully painted artwork by Bill Sienkiewicz, who handles the prologue and
cover, and Szymon Kudranski.
Orphans blasts readers into the heart of
our galaxy alongside William Ackerson, a man lost in space on a quest to find
the source of his uncanny abilities. As gravity waves ripple across reality,
warping time and space, he meets the Orphans. They are each the last of their
kind, all their kin having been wiped outby the alien Hive: Little Boy, their
giant childlike leader; Haze, a caustic creature of pure vapor; Rascal, a
self-loathing zealot with dark secrets; and Critter, a being that's equal parts
monster and puppy.
This ragtag group find themselves in over their heads
when their space-heist is hijacked. They have a stowaway with her own agenda:
Samsi, the fearsome survivor of a civilization that once ruled the
galaxy.
Orphans is a fast-paced, intergalactic treasure hunt that
explodes the Alliances universe into the cosmos. It introduces an extraordinary
band of lone survivors, that must become a family to save the very fabric of
reality.
