About The Book

Another galaxy - a different type of hero!

“An alien space opera James Bond.” – Comicsthegathering

For fourteen brutal centuries, the Imperium Ascendant and the Obdurate have clashed in an intergalactic war that spanned planets and peoples. Then the war – and the Obdurate – came to a dramatic end. Now, the galaxies are picking up the pieces. In the midst of this sprawling, dazzling system of galaxies, is Proteus Vex, ex-soldier for the Imperium Ascendant turned super-agent. He’s fast, brutal, and he always gets his prey. But when he is sent to find his former superior officer, Vex finds himself caught up in a deadly conspiracy.

Hit comics team Michael Carroll (The New Heroes, Dreadnoughts, Judge Dredd), Henry Flint (Judge Dredd, Zombo) and Jake Lynch (Judge Dredd) bring you a mind-expanding, colourful story that will plunge you into a series of strange new worlds.

"The most exciting (and weirdest) comic I've read in years" - The Gamer

“A feast for the eyes.” – Howtolovecomics.com

“An alien space opera James Bond.” – Comicsthegathering

"Flint’s art is, as always, rich with lavish detail and totally worth diving into and exploring all on its own. He’s channeling Moebius with a little bit of Kirby, much like Carroll’s storytelling, with the imaginative aliens, characters and environments he’s created for their story." - Multiversity
