The science fiction/horror thriller, Ocean, by bestselling writer Warren Ellis (Transmetropolitan, Netflix’s Castlevania, Trees) and artist Chris Sprouse (Black Panther, Tom Strong, Batman) will be brought back to print for the first time in years and find a new publishing home at Image Comics. This trade paperback edition of the cult-classic, first contact story collects all six issues of the miniseries and will hit shelves this Fall.
Ocean is a provocative, standalone graphic novel that is a must-read perfect for fans of the movie Arrival or Jeff Vandermeer’s Annihilation and is just in time for the recent resurgence of UFO interest.
In Ocean, Jupiter’s moon Europa is wrapped in a half-mile-thick mantle of ice, and beneath it is the only off-world ocean known to humanity. A tiny research station in orbit around Europa discovers something unsettling laying dormant beneath the ice—something that sends U.N. weapons inspector Nathan Kane to Europa to make an assessment. Thousands of coffins are suspended in the Europan ocean, and Kane and the researchers aren’t the only people in orbit who want to know what’s inside them.
Ocean (ISBN: 9781534331266) will be available at local comic book shops on Wednesday, October 28 and independent bookstores, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, Indigo, and Waterstones on Tuesday, November 24.
